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.

Hi All, Well after our trip to Monarto Zoo with the Adelaide chapter a friend went through some of my pics and stole 1.LOL Anyhow it ended up in the Courier newspaper in the Adelaide Hills, here is a scan on the pic as i got the paper today. Bit of advertising for us as well. LOL Might be a bit hard to see but D70users.com got a mention as well.
Cheers
John

It's always nice to see your name in print - as long as it's not in the crime section...

Nice work John...
Cheers, John

Thanks Chris, and Steve this is not the only one i have had published i had some done in a SA/NT Local Governement Administrators Source Book 2005 as well. The local District Council looked at some of my pics and asked to use them as i had taken a lot of pics of projects being done by that council. Freebies of course but who knows, right people right time and word of mouth can go a long way.
Cheers
John

Nearly gave me a heart attack there BBJ, I thought it was my pic!

But closer examination shows that it's not - damn close though....

Yes, definitely your pic BBJ - well done by the way - what caught my eye was the almost identical placement of the green leaves on the top left, I'd just been showing my print to somebody today, so it stuck in my mind.

Cheers
