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.

Tour Down Under 2007

Well here are a few from tonight. Met up with the usual suspects such as Warren, Fozzie, Daniel, John and Scott. Plenty of room at the track - we pretty much had a free reign to shoot from wherever we wanted to.

Nice set Big V; around the East Tce section, it was damm packed especially trying to walk infront of the pubs. Stupid really; they can afford to have all these Weslo security guys around the track but none to create a walkway through there.

The last photo is pretty cool, nice and contrasty. I like the second shot of the CA rider (?) as well (once their riding gear is on, unless their numbers are showing and I'm next to a rider list, I've got SFA idea who they are) although I'd be tempted to bump the exposure 1/3rd ish.

Ronza, that is why we went down the other end, no crowds to worry about - so you have plenty of ops to shoot without people getting in the way. Are you doing the next 5 days? I will probably do fri - the finish at victor, sat - because it starts and finishes next to home and might go in on sunday with the boys. Congrats on the media pass - I will have to chat with you about that as it looks like I am getting one through the advertiser for the rest of the year, finally!!!

Dave, probably not as the accred for that event had to be in ages ago, it just means when I go to a fire for example I dont get blocked by the police and gets you on the other side for local events. All the biggies still mean going through the proper channels..dp youknow if you are coming to the clipsal yet?
