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.

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.

I like it how the bride glows in the first photo. And the second one is great too. But i think there is a bit too much refection.

I agree with Monty. I also like the vignette look of the first one, and the high contrast you've created. Well done.

Great pics and spot on with the white balance :) Looks very natural. Agreed with the 2nd photo and too much reflection.

Totally agree about the reflection, teh car was parked under big tree, time was late afternoon....

WB...I mostly use AWB dial -1, unless in is in difficult lighting conditions then I use custom WB.

G'day,
The first one is a great interpretation of a classic, nicely PP'ed and the vignette really focuses the attention. Nice to have the zig-zag path go from bottom left corner across too...

The second is an interesting angle, something different which is always refreshing although might appeal to some and not others... Question, would a polariser have helped cut down the reflections?
