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.

Hiya All ... trust all are well. havent posted here in a while!
Anyhoo, nothing too special, however on NY day myself and friends decided on a whim to visit a friend at remote wedge island, north of lancelin .. on the way up we were redirected due to fire, and then as we came into town, we were the last cars to get through as fire had raced up ridge line and all roads in and out were closed ... from around 4pm to 11.30pm. We went north through defence force land, couldnt find our mate, so headed back to lancelin at sunset, only to find the road still shut.
Eventually we were escorted through the fire zone, which was a very eerie scene, paddocks half ablaze, with hundreds of fire appliances up on ridge lines blinking in the distance ... 40km/h for 40km's. It was a long day
ANyway, i only managed to snap pics of the smoke billowing toward us, we were moved on pretty quickly!
time to go! - 35knot winds
A couple others unrelated ;

interesting shots with the smoke, some of these almost appear as a dust storm would.
Looks like you have some very nice scenery to work with, when there are no bishfires.

That must have been eerie and scary driving through that area, good reminder for the season...
That last shot with all the grass plants (being PC now-days  ) would make a great sunset spot... Those plants look pre-historic... Down Wilson's Prom way, they were massive with 4-5 spikes probably up to 10' high coming out, stunning things... Hmmm, must get back down there... Aka Andrew

It's amazing how much smoke can come out of a grass fire. I hope no one was hurt. You would want to be careful wandering around Lancelin defence area as there is a lot of unexploded ordnance laying about.
