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.

After an all night drive from Canberra to Adelaide, I was cruising through Pinnaroo at about 6:30am when I saw the morning light hit these silos (?)

After a squeal of the brakes and a hurried russle through the stuff in the back for the camera, here's the result:

Minimal PP on the image.

Well, that's probably the most attractive picture of Pinnaroo that I have seen. Every time I drive through there (and the myriad of other little towns along these parts) I think "thank God I didn't get posted here!". Hopefully no-one on the board is from Pinnaroo!! :wink:

A classic and iconic image of SA.

Well spotted and taken.

Ray,

you have a keen eye, the silos look terrific.

Maybe worth a call to the owners, perhaps they could use it on their marketing materials......

Feel for you... same trip for me only a month ago, except I had an overnighter at Pinnaroo.

Well spotted!

The only improvement to this image I'd like to see is maybe clone out the bit of branch on the left (but not crop, I think the silo would be too close to the edge of the frame).

Outstanding image! It looks like part of the space program. That something so basic can be made to look so high tech and complex simply because of the quality of the light and the skill of the photographer is bloody amazing! Should be selected as picture of the week.

Thanks for the encouraging comments.

As had been put forward, I've attempted to clone out the tree on the left.

Not too sure about what it did to the image.
