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.

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.

Somersby Falls

A nice set of waterfalls located at Somersby on The Central Coast of NSW.
I took detour on my way to work one morning and was rewarded with these shots.....I hope the boss dosen't see this.

Heavy rain the previous week and a lack of direct sunlight gave these shots a great feel....in my opinion of course.

The second image is amazing. THe lighting on the rocks really makes the waterfall stand out even more.

Take the sickie! I want more :twisted:

Thanks all!

Yes, I agree the hotspots are a bitch.

They don't seem to be as prevalent on the RAW files.
Once resized and converted to JPG the hotspots really stand out.

Any ideas how to settle these suckers down in Photoshop?

Thanks again for your thoughts people.
