Afternoon at Oran Park

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.

Hi mate,

Nice to see you get out and relaxing for an afternoon, rather than working!

I prefer 1 and 2. Nice panning on one, with good wheel blur and sense of speed from the background. 2 is nice and sharp. Good exposure to get the drivers face, and good timing to get the front near side wheel off the ground! Nice colour and contrast in both these images also.

Three seems a bit soft, maybe a slightly to slow shutter speed or shallow DOF? The holden badge seems slightly OOF. That being said, you got a good amount of wheel blur and a sense of speed, which is difficult with head on shots.

Nice all round. Hopefully catch up soon. The new camera arrives tommorrow, so I'll have to give it a workout soon!

:D
