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.
Please also ensure that you have a meaningful location included in your profile. Please refer to the FAQ for details of what "meaningful" is.

For the longest time, one of my favourite photos was this one:
Taken sometime around 2001 with my first digital camera, an Olympus 2100-UZ.
Last night, I was in almost the same spot and thought - hey, the sunset looks pretty tonight, let me see if I can emulate that old shot of mine.
Here is how it turned out. I had to PP this one in Photoshop as opposed to Bibble, which I use for most of my photos, because I had to clone out some horrific flare/ghosting due to the bright lights, and nothing does that better than photoshop's healing brush. Tokina 12-24 @ 24mm, 1/8 f/8
Slightly different lighting conditions, so I played with it a bit. There are few prettier sights than the sun setting its way past the smog behind the members' stand IMO

Thanks guys
Simon, I had enough trouble with those damn lights as it was!!! The Tokina 12-24 is usually pretty good at handling flare, but it had no chance against those bad boys...
