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 Keith,

looks like you guys made it for the Barrington Bullet on Sunday morning. Looks like it was working hard around those curves and slight uphill.

It was a pretty good spot that you picked, just coming out from under the bridge.

Looking forward to more. I haven't even had a chance to look at my photos yet. :oops:

cheers,

André

Nice shot.

Theres nothing to 'age' the image, with a little bit of PP, it could have been from 40 years ago (or more).

Steam trains are cool!!!

Great train! Great shot! Really well captured and as Raskill said, this could be from 40 years ago. Might be fun to run an aging filter over the shot and see how it looks.

I like it. Reminds me of multiple reruns of Thomas the Tank Engine.

Sac religious indeed :shock:

What a glorious machine from the days when they were built of IRON and not aluminium and plastic like today's characterless monstrosities.

This train was featured on the CURTIN programme on the ABC on Sunday night.

The image is a beautiful one. I like this very much.

I love this shot!

With the depth of field it almost looks like it could be a model train.
