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.

Not what you're thinking :)

This girl was using some LF camera in the Docklands in Melbourne this afternoon. I didn't interrupt her to find out what it was.

I underexposed slightly to retain as much detail as possible (sky was very bright) and then curved it back in Photoshop (didn't have time to pull out the GND filter) :)

Indeed. That's a dangerous tripod setup on a large format.

She's probably an art student. :wink: :lol:

If you need the hight on that tripod it should be OK. I have used sinars and linhofs the same way as long as you take care and have a reasonable shutter speed you are OK.

Dam I would love to have the money to be able to shoot 5x4 again.
Way to much photography gear is never enough!

It is an iPod, probably why she didn't hear me snapping away :)

Eeeeeww!
You're only ASSUMING that it IS a girl...

Who knows exactly who owns that butt?
People put way too much rubbish in signature blocks.

I don't think she'd mind, it's not like we're mentally undressing her in posts merely saying what nice curves she has.

i agree. if someone said that my girlfriend had a nice butt i would be rather happy. not that she doesnt but hearing it from someone else is satisfying considering im a total moran and she could do better ;)

p.s. is that an iPod in her right back pocket
