It was all a Blur!

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.

G'day mate,

I always struggle with the creative aspects (sob, sob... :lol: ) so I'm not sure how to provide feedback here, but #3 really caught my eye for the short/narrow DOF effect. Probably just my lack of creativity, or the way I probably tend to conform to the standard non-creative stuff, but I wonder about something being in the short DOF to catch the viewers attention and stop them in their tracks? I go straight to the focal point but wander off again... Then again that's probably just me :lol:

In #3 I like the framing with the subtle and soft silohette of the Opera House in the background... Very creative and unusual which is good to see...

I always admire those that have the creativity to find something, where I would probably have continued walking and not even noticed...
