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.

The Happy Couple

So here I was jostling amongst the pro photogs, trying to get a pic af the happy couple. It even happens in Greece. Of course I could have cropped them out of this shot, and indeed I have my own pix sans photographers, but this shot brings back a sense of the occasion for me.

How about the backdrop for the photos!

A lovely photo with a gorgeous background - I love the sunlight coming over the mountains. I would have liked to see the couple fill the frame a bit more without the other photographers in the way, though.

I believe the dress is by Paul Hunt, a Brisbane designer.

Thanx everyone.

I had my suitcase stolen outside Athens airport on Day 1 of my trip - couldn't have got off to a worse start! Had to buy all new clothes & an outfit for the wedding. Bummer! :evil:

But despite that, I had the most fantastic time. The wedding was really, really excellent, and we had lots of other fun too.

The wonderful thing about photography is that you can keep revisiting all of those wonderful memories. :D
