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.

Firstly, be nice. This was my first go at fill flash with a SB-600 attached to the camera.
Sun position was generally to the left or behind the subject to the left.
Comments very welcome.
Shot in iTTL with BL (oh and FP but all were held under 1/250th with aperture), Manual, Matrix metering metered for the sky.
I'm thinking a tighter crop will work on this better, the flag went limp
They warmed up their leathers, but couldn't wait to get out of the sun!
Contemplating the race ahead.

Good shots Brett, fill flash is a must at some events like this when the sun is harsh and you have done well here.
Well done.

Thanks! Appreciate the feedback. Was no where as easy as I thought it would be, mind you it wasn't as hard as I thought either. Still lots to learn though.

great shots brett!
i think its one of those things that once you know what works and what doesn't it'll become second nature to you and it'll all be easy!
now all i need is a few of those girls to hold an umbrella over me when im shooting out in the sun and i'll be set
