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.

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 After a hectic and exhaustic Fashion Week in Freezing New York I decided to head down to Rio De Janiero, Brazil to soak up the humid 35degree weather. It's been a long time dream to do a personal reportage story on Carnival. Day 1 includes shows from Brazil's Younger generation of Samba Schools, later on in the week is when the professional samba schools parade and nudity and sexuality isn't taboo. Kids and Adolecents parade down dancing the samba adorned in cultural themed outfits shooting available light with the 14-24 which i love i get in real close to the action and the 200-400VR f4 with my recently fixed D3's     more to come later.

awesome photos Wendell, great to follow ones dreams, you can sure be an inspiration that one should follow their dreams.
As Suren, I really love the last one and I love the looks you capture with the kids.
Looking forward to the rest of your reportage.
Cheers,
André
