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.

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.

I view these pics with interest as a fellow sea-going sailor. It's nice to see images from the 'other side.'

I like both of your images. The first one shows just how long the ship is and holds quite a lot of interest. The second one shows how a large barge? is tiny against the enormous loading facility. Your composition is excellent. THe second image could perhaps do with a minor white balance adjustment as the colour from the harbour lights is just a bit too orange for me.

Great pics. Thanks for sharing.
Steve.

Great shots that really capture a mood and feeling. Felt like I was there. Top stuff!

Canon 20D and a bunch of lovely L glass and a 580EX. Benro tripod. Manfrotto monopod. Lowepro and Crumpler bags. And a pair of Sigma teleconverters, and some Kenko tubes.

Great shots, perfect exposure and interesting subject matter!. Sorry to hear about your stolen D70, but the upgrade even if not noticable is nice (less clicks on shutter :) )
