A postcard and a couple of happy snaps from Harrods

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.

A postcard and a couple of happy snaps from Harrods

Postby leek on Sat Dec 17, 2005 6:10 am

During our very brief visit to London, we, of course, had to visit Harrods and in particular the Food Hall (The best delicatessen in the world)...
Rather than bore you all with lots of photos of scrummy food, I've put together a montage of some of the foodie delights displayed there...

After that, we also had to go to the toy department... A couple of happy snaps of mini-Leek enjoying herself:

Yes Loz,

And that's just the CHEAPEST of them!!

There'd be a marked depreciation greater than that of a new car from terrine to latrine!

Hope it's yummy!!

It might be a happy snap, but #3 is a really fine bit of photography too. How many did you need to take to get that one?

Great shots John, send me congratulations to your budding actress... I'd say she could walk onto the role of Goldilocks based just on that photo. :)

Love the montage and the double deck bus aswell.
