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.

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.

Hi,

Last saturday I went to test my "new" camera - old soviet Kiev 6C (the one I've brought to the mini-meet at Birddog's at the end of May). Here is one of captures from 100 years for Warringah council celebration. No post-processing at all.

Lens Vega-12B 2.8/90. f/11, 1/90. Chinese Lucky SHD400 120 format film.

Great capture of the "old bat" :lol:

Well captured and exposed.

Show some more of this kind.

Actually I do like the picture. What does he do with the bat? Wouldn't it get grumpy being out during the day?

I'm guessing that it was at an open day? (seeing the bat has been tagged -captive or maybe even re-capture?).

And surely he would be 'batmate'?

Very good pictures. Maybe lighten the mans jumper in PShop so the bat comes 'forward' a bit. Otherwise excellent. Nice to see film again.

Hi everyone!

Thanks for your comments!

As I mentioned it was 100 years for Warringah council and Environmental Fair at James Mehan Reserv (near Dee Why lagoon) - you know, organic food, recycling systems, local plants etc. etc. etc. The guy was telling about flying foxes

Yes, soviet camera is the medium format film camera. Kiev 6C is the predecessor to the Kiev 60:
