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 guys,

I have been an avid reader of this forum but never had the energy to share my work. Fortunately, I came to the decision of buying my first wide-angle lens (10-20mm sigma). These are some of my first shots I took from Tunkalilla (near Victor Harbour, SA).

Go easy on me folks ;)

Welcome to the forum. Great colours in your shots. If you could clone out the power lines in #1 it would be an improvement. Looks like you made a good investment with that lens.

Welcome Aleks, hope you enjoy it here.


Nice images. Just so you are aware, if you read the top of the entry page to this site, the maximum size we allow for images is 800 pixels in their largest dimension. :wink:

Hey Aleks..

Love the 'mood' of these pics - not your classic beach shots.

The area brings back memories from my surfing days..good ol' Tunks!

Welcome I love the feel of the last shot

Did you get any details of the marks made in the sand by the sea grass on the lower right hand side?

Thanks Aleks on the resizing. I also prefer it without the power lines.

Welcome Alex - u will like it here I'm sure!
This sigma 10-20 lens is certainly being showcased on the forum lately.
Your photos are no exception to the quality it is capable of.
I really like #1 and #3.

Welcome aleks. The Flerieur Peninsula certainly has some great scenery and you have captured it well. :D
