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.

I can imagine that it is more than a 2 minute walk. :( But, any time you can catch water that calm, it's well worth the effort, IMO. :)

Well i could just see myself sitting there on the edge with the fishing rod enjoying the peace and taking it all in and well maybe a nice cold beer as well. Loverly pictures and great to have such nice beauty to take pictures of. Well done.
Cheers

Dee, these are pretty cool shots. I'm not used to seeing your pictures with normal natural colours I have a place all scoped out at daisy lake reserve area. Not sure exactly how to get there yet so that will be an adventure in itself. There's Deek's lake and Echo lake up here (Sea to Sky area) that are really tricky to get to but apparently they are awesome in its most pure uncorrupt sense. You game?

I've been admiring these for a few minutes now Dee, these are excellent. Seem to capture that peaceful, tranquil feel... Places/scenes like this just top off a nice bush-walk... Very, very nice...

Lovely Dee, you have a real flair, MCWB spot-on mate, the foreground makes it, although the foreground may be a tad dark for me :?

Last one

Postby Yedrup on Thu May 19, 2005 6:25 pm

Love the last one. :D :D

You have one hell of a back yard.......... even comes with a couple of seats for you to sit on while having a brew and admiring a truly beautiful view.

Cheers,
Terry
