Protest outside the MCG, feat. nude bums and Richard Wilkins

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.

Plenty of police presence and Richard Wilkins :-)

Wow the thread really describes the pictures well. I was skeptical over the Richard Wilkins claim, but it was later shown to be true.

These guys must be serious animal rights people, to get bummed out and 1/2 nude for sheep. I wonder if wearing the AUS flag on the bum is the same as flag burning? :D

Nicely captured. Or though it quite an eye full. :wink:

ALV were handing out info to most people passing into the pathway leading to gate 2 of the MCG

Channel 9 camera guy was there and a couple of pro-looking photojournalist types

I didn't know what to expect when opening this post. I'm certainly glad that I did :) Out of the series I like the last image the best, tells a short story and captures a serious moment light heartedly.

It's most amusing to watch Mr Wilkins turn the other cheek :lol:
