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.

Just returned from my travels in Thailand, just thought I'd say a quick 'hi' to all. Obviously, I've got a lot of posts to catch up on.

These are a couple of captures I got from visiting a hill tribe village up in far north Thailand.

Alex - to get beautiful shots like this makes a trip to N/Thailand really worthwhile :)

Alex, like the 2nd one.
The first looks a little on the orange side on my monitor.

Nice Shots!

You have here two nice shots. I prefer the second one because of the colours. The first one has a very bright background for my taste, but I would know how to fix it myself unless you superimposed the image with a different background. I love the look of the child staring at the camera.

Thanks for the comments, every one. LOL Chris... they stopped groving poppies long ago as far as I know.

Methd: It is part of their traditional make-up, I guess and is some kind of white paint. Or let's hope it is, at least....

I'm not too keen on the background in the first one and also the colours, later I can adjust easily.

Cheers
