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.

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.

Hey everyone,
I took this photo of one on my sons as we were playing in the tree. I'm interested to see what other think of it?

Wow, a great image, very appealing.. bit weird as it looks lovely on my CRT but on my LCD.. I can see some patches on his forhead and cheeky.. like "light patches" I think the problem is at my end.

But a gorgeous image, print it big on canvas!

Very nice shot!

Not quite an off-the-cuff snapshot while you were playing in the tree I think though :lol: :lol: Looks like you used a carefully planned lighting setup - I'm guessing this from the way the shadows fall, and the double highlight in his left eye - care to share your lighting arrangement?

Cheers

Edit: I'll take a guess - Sunlight, plus off-camera flash to camera right, triggered via optical slave from the on-board flash.
What's another word for "thesaurus"?

No actually i was playing with him in the trees. I liked the way the light fell so I asked him to climb it for me. He started to climb it and then popped his head around the tree trunk and I quickly took the photo.
He was 2 1/2yr in the photo so not the most co operative of models. Found it better to play games with him and try and get some candid shots off
