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.

captured my wife as she exited the crypt of St Peter's Basilica, after seeing the grave of Pope John Paul II. Visiting the pope was definately one of the highlights of my Euro-trip.

Neat and in the middle.
Well done; the lighting perfectly focuses one's attention on the person. g.

There a few terms or notions in photography that annoy me more than the rule of thirds. (Although I have to say that this diagonal out of the corner stuff is fast earning a place in the snappers' hall of shame also.)
I recall as a high school student the Kodak rep calling by and giving us a slide show about photography. The importance of a primary colour in the foreground, the life infused in a flower with a spray of spittle, the list went on. He projected schematics and grids explaing the rule of thirds and it sort of made sense with the SELL that he gave to a bunch of 13 year olds. Within a moment with a camera in my hand on the next weekend I realised it was bunkum. True at times but certainly nothing to crochet into my pillow slip as a rule to sleep on. Your work is wonderful and that is due in no small way to your eye for design and balance. Add colour and your work sings, and for that I thank you. _______________

I was going to criticise the blown-out light at the end of the tunnel, but when i had a second and third look at the photo i decided that it enhances the image, rather than detracts from it. i see the bright light being indicative of the 'end of the tunnel' and enhancing the silouhette of your wife.
Great image. Steve.
