Some Winter images

Got a thin skin? Then look elsewhere. Post a link to an image that you've made, and invite others to offer their critiques. Honesty is encouraged, but please be positive in your constructive criticism. Flaming and just plain nastiness will not be tolerated. Please note that this is not an area for you to showcase your images, nor is this a place for you to show-off where you have been. This is an area for you to post images so that you may share with us a technique that you have mastered, or are trying to master. Typically, no more than about four images should be posted in any one post or thread, and the maximum size of any side of any image should not exceed 950 px.

Forum rules
Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy. So please do offer your critique of the images of others; your opinion is important, and will help everyone here enjoy their visit to far greater extent.

Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.

Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.

Please also ensure that you have a meaningful location included in your profile. Please refer to the FAQ for details of what "meaningful" is.

The penultimate one is spectacularly good the field of view looks to be a bit more than 180 degrees? And vertical?

14mm lens?

It's different, and different is good.

ta Gary - the bendy on is actually taken with the 24-70 @24 mm.. its a vertical panorama (landscape orientation shots) covering a bit over the 180 degrees

Spectacular Gerry. Concerning the first two wide angle images, are you sure you're not Ken Duncan in disguise? :) They are just as good as Ken's wide angles, if not better.

thanks Ozi, i really like pano images, there is a challenge in stitching together several images to capture the nice field of view, that said i find compositionally they are quite easy :)

I like this one, its a stitch of 3 images one with the car in it :)

They are all masterful, but I prefer the very last one after the comments and the second last before the comments. :up:

Thanks, Gerry. I appreciate the response. My favourite shooting iron is the 24mm. And the 85.

But you can do some very interesting things with a very wide angle lens. Like getting in dangerously close to a moving tram, or getting your feet into a shot of a cathedral across the road in Melbourne, with the lights from a traffic light standard, over your head, also in the shot. :)
