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.

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.

I had a good weekend at Bathurst with Alan, Barry, Kyle and Michael.
Here are a few shots of the race cars that I grew up with. My favourite is of course the Mustang pity it's not such a good shot.

Love the escorts Jeff, specially the first. Fantastic location, fantastic photos!

Mustang is a nice car, but the coupe was never my style, I've always loved the fastback! Only seems to be the front that is OOF...

Fantastic detail the second is my favourite the first seems a bit tightly framed on the left hand side.

Nice mate. The images of the Escorts are tack sharp. You seem to be figuring out the D200 nicely.

I wouldn't be to concerned about the Mustang, like you said, it's a good shot. Remember, it's all about art. :lol:

Jeff, very nice shots them 2 escorts and even the mustang isnt a bad shot and as you would see from time to time that it doesn't matter how bad some shots can look they still end up in print. But all good have never been there but would be nice.
