Technically not DSLR

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.

Hey all, been sorting through my older stuff and thought I'd post a few from my time spent in East Timor.

These were taken with the trusty old Nikon FM2 and scanned. No PP.

Who cares if they aren't from a DSLR? A good image is a good image and will be appreciated by all and sundry around here and there are some good images there. Thanks for posting :lol:

I agree, they are great images. The last one of the kid is excellent.

Love the grain in the helicopter shot. What ISO did you shoot that with?

Gotta love black and white! I agree with Killa....the portrait of the young boy is a fine image....though normally I'd prefer the photographer to assume a lower posture with children...eye level....this image works wonderfully from your chosen POV.

Love the child portrait! And the other shots, they have a strong emotion to them, or they stirr a strong emotion in me... a really nice series. 2nd last shot is my favourite.

I believe it was ISO 200, the grain is from the dust being thrown up by the helicopter.
