Calling all models to spaceport delta....

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.

from a composition point of view, second one for me Dan.

first has two subjects, so I dont "know" where to look (but I do) :wink:

first also has a contradiction, the window frame shape light on the wall, and the night scape.

nice edits too.

the first one looks likes a half arsed attempt at cutting and pasting the black on the inside of the window sill looks dodgey

the second one hits the mark for composition and the moon being added in but I am not a fan of the model being overexposed (at least on my monitor)

the other two are up to your usual standard.

I really like #1 (over #2),

#3 is sharp, good colour, & great lighting. Not sure about her expression though? And a tiny bit of arm (?) that needs cloning bottom right I think.

#4 is a beauty, and my fave. Love the wall with the vines and great use of natural light.

You always live up to your name in terms of being creative!

#1 or #4 are my faves, depending on the theme. I quite like #2 as well... the pose in #3 looks a bit odd. But a nice group!

The last one is very nice. I do like the composition style on this one. The lighting is nice too. It works well for the image.
