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.

A clear impressionist feel here in this set Matt. Like 'em :)
I can't help thinking, as unpalatable as it may sound to a purist, cloning out the star picket the telecom/electric pole and the light pole from this scene would just,IMHO, enhance the feeling you have engendered in this image. They just seem to hijack the viewer's attention from what is a great dramatic subject/scene. I like it best.
cheers

Ya got me thinking on that one marcotrov. I kinda like the way the 4 verticals line up....but on the other hand removing some of them could increase the sense of isolation. A good comment.

Sadly you hosting is causing me viewing issues again Matt, I can only see 1 out of 3 but I like it.

You always get some nice shots when it rains.

Really like first one, tho I will try to crop out from the left pole (mesh) so nothing is pointing out of nowhere and stay more focused on the subject :)

Matt,
These are great. I always learn so much from looking at your photos.
Love the lines of the second shot.

Lovely shots Matt.

Just in relation to Alpha 7 having issues viewing your pics.I have a pbase account also and if you link your photos using the image properties ( http://i.pbase.com/o6/92/401592/1/76780 ... shower.jpg) instead of the link properties (http://www.pbase.com/matt_k/07_work with .jpg added to the end of it http://www.pbase.com/matt_k/07_work.jpg)sometimes your shots wont show up.I had the same problem .Has something to do with pbase when they move stuff around on there servers.
