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.

In Adelaide for Christmas.
A great summer storm happened for most of the night. As already captured in a couple of threads by various people, I decided o try for my first time at capturing some lightning also.
Both shots were taken with the D50, kit lens. Camera on Bulb setting, triggered with the Infra-red control.
Straight out of the camera (resized for the WEB) - around 35 seconds
and - around 13 seconds
My brother and I played in Photoshop with the second and quickly came up with
Thanks for looking. Any comments welcome.
Happy New Year

Thanks yraen69.
They were taken outside mum and dad's house. I took som from the middle of the road, but these were taken under their front verandah.
I think it made for a better shot, the fact that the street light outside isn't working.

Great shots Russell. Well done.
If you consider lightning as "living" this would have made an exceptional shot for Stella by Streetlight 
You could crop some of the right side and still have a great shot IMHO,
Cheers, Mick
