ICEBERG!! straight ahead!

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.

Dee

A fantastic shot of your usual high calibre. Why is the whole image so blue? Did you use some sort of filter?

Wow, what a fantastic image. Great exposure and the colours are brilliant. The boat really adds to the image, unfortunately for some fisherman.

Great work!!

Well done.

thanks for the nice comments on this image...

to answer the question about what time of day it was, this was taken at about 8 pm that night...(sun goes down before 5 pm this time of year)

shot in RAW, i bumped the white balance a tad to get even more of a cold feel to it...

Well done, how many other shots did you take while you were out ? I'd love to see a few more.

Just quietly but I think this has a very good chance of taking out POTW, each time I come back I find something else to love about this shot.

Postby stetner on Tue Jan 16, 2007 9:28 pm

Both are great shots!

We only had one snow the year I lived in Van.... I remember the cars heading south on Main (I think, maybe Cambie) and realising it was slippery after they crested the hill down to the river! Needless to say there was quite a pile up at the bottom! Luckily only peoples pride was hurt (and their cars!) :D

Of course as a Saskatchewan native I was used to snow, and was passing most cars on the commute home on my motorcycle! :lol: :lol:

Very nice Dee. I so rarely visit here anymore (family commitments, not because I am off taking too many images) and post even less, but this image is fantastic and I couldn't let it pass.

Upon saying that I am going to go and jump into my pool! Enjoy your cooler climate, it looks magical.
