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.

Recently went to Mutchilba, north-west of Cairns, in the tablelands to visit my brother. Early winter's morning, crisp clean air, dominating irrigation boom, heavy mist, ploughed field and a little time on my hands.... I just couldn't resist. Would value your comments on a few in the set. I have noticed however that the images once uploaded to pixspot don't seem to have the punch they do when viewed on my screen. Anyone with any ideas?
Will be leaving tomorrow night for a 2 week trip to the gulf so I probably won't get to respond till i get back. Hopefully I'll get to practice with my virgin 80-400VR. This is my experimentation with stubbsy's embedding an image process, thanks stubbsy. I'll just need to refine for quality. Thanks in advance.
cheers

Irrigation Booms fascinate me. I always see them in fields when I'm down Warnambool way. I like all except the last, just seems out of place in the series
1st, 2nd and 4th are my fav. Mainly because the lines of the boom are leading you into a void (the fog). Plus because they disappear into the void, there seems to be a sense of it never ending.

About right normally, Birddog, but this time it was quite cold.
You don't get much time before mist and the moment depart.

Actually I was on my way home to do some fencing when I saw the opportunity with mist and rainbow. It was a real grab shot.
Thank you for the comments guys.

Wow this is very surreal
receeding steel geometric patterns over a rural landscape
You may not consider them arty but i really like the juxtaposition
well thought out.
Would be really cool to shoot a silhouette at dawn

Thanks wendellt. I am in truth a neanderthal in terms of artistic flare. I just do it by the numbers. I am trying to learn to SEE more creatively in my photography but its hard work, for me anyway, but I thank you for the kind comment. I'm pleased you enjoyed them.
