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.

Went back to Bondi Beach again. Wanted to try out my new $9 remote keyring and get a couple of Sunset shots. The keyring is awesome worked well!!

1. A bit rock not much surf or cloud cover. 30secs @ f/4.5

2. This shot is HDR. Ive added 2 crops as Im sure some will think that the first has too much foreground.

I like the first shot the best, nice colour and sharpness on the stones. What's that rock wall thing on the left, is it part of a building or natural? I think maybe a bit ore of it in the frame could add interest (unless it's attached to a really ugly building :) )
The other shots look a bit dark on the stones and the shore is too ar away to see any detail like buildings etc.
Otherwise well done!

The buildings to the left sit on a rock shelf. Yeah they are pretty ugly. Thanks for your comments. You can see more detail in the larger ver on the 2nd shot.
