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.

Well, we just spent 6 days in Tasmania for our "mini-moon" - the real honeymoon is 4 weeks in Canada/Alaska in July. Beautiful place, Tassie. I'd always meant to go and visit.. and looks like I will definitely have to go again, as 6 days wasn't nearly enough.
I got a whole bunch of mediocre shots, but these are my favourite three.
A church in Sheffield:
Cradle Mountain - the important thing about this photo, apart from the IMO stunning late afternoon lighting, is that it was taken as I was walking AWAY from the bloody thing, having climbed to the summit earlier.
Liffey Falls:
So many beautiful things to photograph. Unfortunately some days were too hazy to get great shots, just means I'll have to keep going back 
For those who want to kill some time, you might consider checking out my travel diary of the week - http://blog.thesystemisdown.com/weblog.php?id=P438
It has a link to more pics from the trip

Wow Des, these are a bunch of very nice shots. Especially seeing that you didn't succumb to the usual temptation of over-tightening the contrast and saturation screw.
The first one has a good perspective and sky, and a very reassuring subject, too. I hope Tasmanians will not forgo their regular backups, though...
The second image sports pretty much perfectly shaping illumination of the mountain (from what I've seen so far). Very nice!
The third, well we wouldn't really call it a waterfall, but it is a gorgeous site. Nicely exposed, and very naturalistic.
Looks like you had a good time! Your mediocres would be my selects.
Cheers
Steffen.

Great shots Des. Love the lighting and framing. Colours seem very natural.
How was the weather? I spent 2 weeks in Tassie (many years ago) it was in January and the conditions changed all the time. We experienced frosts, rain, fog and heat wave conditions.
Well done.
Cheers, Mick

I agree, great shots. I particularly like the Cradle Mt image, lovely light. Both Cradle Mt and Liffey Falls are 2 places I intend going to visit. Only lived in the state 50 years and haven't been to either.

Don't forget the snow and bushfires in the same week.
