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.

Gorgeous colours Willy. I like both but number 2 with its composition contrasting colours and gorgeous reflection (here's where you wish for no breeze at all :wink: ) steals the show. The only niggle is the slightly truncated tip of the tree. Terrific shots Willy
cheers

#2 is the choice here, the reflection really makes it.

I'm hoping to capture something at least half as good as this on the weekend!

Willy - moved as requested.

These are both exceptional images, but I'm a sucker for a good reflection so #2 by a nose. Next year I hope I can make it to Canberra for the next Autumn meet and try to get such a great image myself.

The second one for me too, great reflection. I also hope to make it there next year.

Cheers,

I love number 2!!

Fantastic colours and looks really sharp too.

My only nit is that I'd like to see all of the reflection in the water.

Lovely shots Willy.

As Paul stated above, I'd also like to see the whole reflection in the water but that's a tiny niggle. The shots are well composed, the colours appear to be spot on and they're nice and sharp.

We don't have the luxury of too many autumn leaves up here (probably because it always seems to be bloody summer and we never get any cold weather :evil: ) so I'm very jealous.

Well done.

Would have been nice to get just a touch more reflection in 2, but still good images. Wish we had those colours of autumn up our way :cry:

Canon 20D and a bunch of lovely L glass and a 580EX. Benro tripod. Manfrotto monopod. Lowepro and Crumpler bags. And a pair of Sigma teleconverters, and some Kenko tubes.
