Red and Green

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.

very nice greg, claudia will be very happy! (let me know when you have a collection to post a CD to me) :D

that fan worked a treat, like the streaks through her hair.

i notice a halo around some of your images from the workshop, are you adding that in post (perhaps burning the background down?)

I like the image in general, but I have a pet hate of PP halos, so I am being harsh, esp where there is a red halo next to the green.

Thanks Bruce. I will have a cd for you in about a week (I will include the raw file and my final output so the ladies can
have the un PP'd image if they wish).

Yes, the fan was excellent, worked well with Melissa too.

I like strong PP effects, and particularly with the shots from the day, I have been just going for it and having a lot of fun. I realise
they are not to everyone's taste, but I love it. So pretty much all my shots from the day are heavily PP'd. :D
