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.

Earlier this year there was a fireworks show in Melbourne in the Docklands precinct. Having never taken photos of fireworks before, I decided to wander in and have a crack.
Whilst setting up, I noticed the Bolte bridge off to the side with some nice reflections, and general cruise boats milling around waiting for the show to begin. I captured the image, and on reflection when I got home, this was my favourite of the night (even if I had come to shoot fireworks).
Please click for a slightly larger image.
I did shoot some fireworks as well:

All of these images have been sharpened, but no other adjustments have been made.
Please feel free to make any comments you wish.

They were all shot at F9
Picture #1, #3, #4 were 4 second exposures, #2 was 3 seconds.
The camera was in manual focus because the autofocus had nothing to focus on. I used the infra-red control I purchased with the D50, to trigger the shots, and moved the shutter times around a couple of times.
From the 70 or so shots I took, the shorter exposure times (3 seconds) had a bit more colour. The longer exposure (4 seconds) seemed to burn out the colour a bit more.
