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.

We had some friends visiting from overseas recently, and somehow it was my job to take them to the local attractions. I took this shot at Australia Zoo. C&C more than welcome.

I like the shot.

I would have preferred a closer crop to help focus attention on the tiger, as the reflections off the surface make it hard to find a focal point (IMHO).

Looks like it would have been a difficult shot, again, due to the reflections playing havoc with metering, so well done!

Nice shot in trying conditions. They (the Tiger cubs) have grown a heap since I was there last! I love Tigers, might have to make another trip up there later in the year!

Thanks. I'll experiment with that a little at home. At the moment, the size is perfect for my wallpaper. :)

Thats my favourite job....you get to go to all the coolest places and with good company....take some photographs and create some memories...what more could a girl ask for...

cept maybe chocolate and stuff...;)

The colours are good....and I like the water that is pouring off the tigers chin...I agree with the others re the crop...but I don't mind it as it is though...:)
The last thing I want to do is hurt you... but it's still on the list... ;)
