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.

Forum rules
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.

Pam and I went on a short walk this morning during a let up in the rain. It didn't last  but we came across lots of wildflowers in bloom. Most are tiny. All are taken along the Charles Darwin Walk in Wentworth Falls All taken with 105VR Camera Manual with the PUF switched on in TTL mode See EXIF for more details. Not much in the way of identification. I am hoping the horticulturists among us can enlighten us... A grevillea, very common along the CDW  Another Grevillea. This one is a ground hugger. It was a little way off the main track.  No idea on these last two. There was only one of these thatwe saw on the main track, but quite a few on our back track down to the CDW  Quite a few of these. If pressed, I would call it a native violet  Greg

I love the framing of the last one. Makes me feel sad for the flower.

I really envy your place of residence. The last two images are simply amazing. Great work on balancing the pop up flash with the background.

The last one is the pick. I don't like the large twig at the bottom however.
Greg, these are appearing a little soft on my monitor. I wonder whether they have been a victim of forum resizing. [seems to affect some images more than others?] I can't see your EXIF currently as the new firefox doesn't work with the EXIF viewer.

Suren, I use FF 3.5.3 which to my knowledge is the latest version. I use two different EXIF viewers. Both work with it. EXIF Viewer 1.51 and FxIF 0.3The first gives LOTS of detail, but can get confusing to read. Right-Click and "View Image EXIF Data" The second gives less info, but is clearer. Right-Click and choose "properties" I got the second one when the first stopped working after FF3.5 came out, but there was an update to it a month or two ago. Greg

Ok Greg, #1 is Grevillea acathifolia #2 is Grevillea laurifolia When the two of these hybridise we get Grevillea Gaudi Chaudi, first descrbed from Weni falls I think. #3 is a Pattersonia that has finished, they only last a day or less. #4 and you would be correct it is a Viola species maybe sieberiana  Regards Colin
