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.

Mic - I like the treatement of this - how is it different to the POTW version (please don't say you inverted it )
Stubbsy, The original pic was a lot more pinkier ( I think I just made a new word for the Dic )
This one just looks a bit more normal to me, but hey, what is normal in my world might not be in yours
No, couldn't invert such a nice place, but bloody Marcus did turned in into The Antarctic. you can see such an offence in POTW's
Mic.

Great idea for a thread
Wow there are some awesome amazing images in this thread! These just happen to be current at the moment as I'm playing with them but for the fun of it...

An evening glow (note, on the pno 10*23 odd print, you can see the people on the cliff in the distance where the viewing platform is which is really cool in the print):

Would be a pleasure to post some more for you:
This one and the next were taken at Stockton - where that meet will soon be held.

Heath
Your images just blow me away. The simplicity of that first one is magic & the B & W is the perfect treatment.

Nothing better than a lovefest is there
The ships is something I'll do again. Three sailed at once and so that meant I could get shots of the other two at sea. Really proved just how good the VR was on my 70-200 VR.

Yeah the VR must have worked well - active mode?
This is definately on the topic... During one of the world wars an American ship called 'MANLOVE' was highly successful and sunk many enemy ships. Must have had something to do with morale

Unreal Heath.
Man that B&W of the tracks is perfect.
Checked out your site dude and bookmarked it. I reckon you would have won the challenge with that flipping boy shot.
I'm starting to sound a trifle gay here with my praise for you, but I really love what you're doing.

Manlove can sound quite homosexual (not that there is anything wrong with that, thanks Seinfeld).
Yeah I'm wishing I didn't post the flipping shot - I have found it hard to decide what else I could post... It says that obvious subject answers have won previous comps, but all I can think of are shots that are unique interpretations... Well winning isn't everything I am told.

I haven't had a chance to submit any of my favourites yet, but I'm absolutely in awe of the talent on display here. Some of these shots - and I especially single out Heath here - are gems.
