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.

For those that didn't get to go on the Hunter Valley Wine Weekend, I now present to you the ugliest things in the Hunter Valley (besides me... I already anticipate someone playing that card so consider yourself screwed if it was you):
One Broke Road
A closer view of it
Tempest Two (I called it "Tetanus Two")
These are apparently wineries.
But you'd never know it from the way they look.
They probably deserve to be in Jurassic Park with a bunch of broken windows and loose Velociraptor running around freely getting drunk off whatever alcohol they're convinced they're producing at them.

Ugly indeed. Especially the first one. It looks only half finished. What's it made out of? Concrete with Pebble Mix on the outside?
The second one looks like a lawn bowls centre along the Murray River somewhere.

Every time I go past Tempus Two that's my exact thought - I expect to see old men in creams. Apparently all the green in front is an amphitheatre for concerts of which they have a had one or two. BTW Their wines are VERY expensive and the price is no indicator of the quality.

You haven't done either of these buildings justice. They don't look bad enough here.
