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.

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.

Heya guys  Haven't posted anything here in a while so i thought i'd see what all you lovely people had to say about this one:  I know its probably hard for anyone to identify it from the shot, I was told what sort of flower it was, but cant for the life of me remember!.

Rob, that would be a purple flower, colours are great. Wish I could help you out with the plant, my grandmother used to have a few of them & right now I can't remember what they are called though.

Can't help for the flower ID, but I'd say that its a great capture, brilliant colours. But maybe a little cropping towards the middle may bring the flower out a little bit?

Very nice capture Rob and lovely colours. I also think a tighter crop would enhance the image.
Cheers,
André

I like this Rob. The softness works nicely. I agree with Andre on the tighter crop. Regards Colin
