Spring

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.

It seems like the outdoors have been devoid of color up here in the North since I got my camera (January).

Finally some color is re-appearing.

Shot with Sigma 70-300 APO in macro mode.

I realy like this, it seems as though if I wait a little longer I'll see the flower start to bloom in front of my eyes.

Not a big fan of words over the top of pictures, but I think it looks good in this instance.

Hi Rich - as Charlie has said words can very often destroy a pic but when you combine a very nicely shot tulip with words designed to become part of the pic you are on a winner. :D

Stretching my botanical knowledge (and spelling!) to the max, but is it a dafodil or tulip?

I spent WAY too much time fiddling with the lettering, so I'm really glad you guys think it works :)

Great pic! :) Have you tried increasing the saturation a tad to make the photo a bit brighter :)

My monitor at work isn't calibrated, but the photo leaps out of the screen enough for me.

I like photos with brighter colours and mind you i'm viewing photos thru a lcd monitor, so contrast and saturation doesn't quite leap out at me ;)
