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.

Here comes again, the BW versions:


Thanks Geoff for letting me try a 17-55DX, this lens ROCKS! Now I really need to test drive a 85/1.4 and decide my next lust. 8)

A classic 300/4 can still do magic tricks on candids.

Have I ever mentioned about the 600mm power??

Some nice shots Yip, I saw the girl in shot #2 and the guy in #3, but I'm not sure were you found the stone work in #1.

I like the B&W work on all these shots, #3 is the weakest for me, it shows the power of the 600mm and the lovely bokeh but without any context, I can only feel you found somone balder then Stubbsy.

I'm torn for a favourite between #2 and #1, I like the detail and tone in #1 but I just love the moment you've captured in #2, I'd say they tie for me but for different reasons.

Well done.

Thnx for the comments,


#1 Stone is actually taken on our way to the turnback where we hit the beach to Camp Cove? They were the stone path down the ground if you ever missed it :)
