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.

Alan,

It looks a bit soft to me.

But the image is great. :)

i like :)

It's not overly soft.... Man i hate when people do SOFT EFFECT on BW photo's..... It pisses the hell out of me.

BW has its own softness (doooh! coz colour detail is missing)
Why do some so called professionals just use a bigger lens to make a proper but nice SOFT EFFECT, instead they give you a blurred end result :(


Great shot.

Beautiful image indeed.
I'd like to see what a tad more contrast would do to it. Well done.

No, hehe i guess you didn't understand me :)

The picture is nice, i am complaining about "pro" shots that sell the image with a SOFT EFFECT.

All BW photography is soft in its own way....... making the so called soft effect makes image blurry coz they adjust manual focus slightly to give that effect.

I wouldn't pay $5 for a "pro" shot where the guy tries to sell me the SOFT EFFECT bull....

Make more sense? :) hehehe

IIt seems to me that the shot has been lit with a torch - as if you were changing his nappy during a power outage!
