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.

Hi guys, I've managed to get my butt into gear, and have converted some of the shots I took at the Harbour meet (a while back).
For those that are interested, here are a couple that I took with the Tokina. There has been some adjustments made for exposure and croping in PP
1. Generic bridge/house shot (aka the "Glen shot")
2. A shot of the rocks near the Luna Park face
3. A crop of the second shot
I'm not sure why, but the nef files are sooo much sharper than the converted jpeg ones (conversion done in CS). Anyone know reasons that may cause this?
My impressions of the lens btw, are that it is quite well built - and the picture quality is acceptable (for me) - note it is definitely NOT a pro lens, but then again, I'm not a pro shooter either..!!

The pier at the bridge is falling down, and it seems to me the bridge was push to far to the northern side, what have you done?  Birddog114

Nice shot of the bridge Wai.
Btw, how much did you pay for that lens? Quality looks good enough for me too mate. Can't afford the Nikon at the mo so this might be a contender.

JPEG is a compressed file format, so you will lose definition when converting your NEFs to JPEGs. When you save as a JPEG in Photoshop, there is a slider to adjust the image quality, which in turn alters the final file size.
Nice shots too, BTW!
