Today's dreary landscapes

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.

It's been ages since I've posted a photo or two for review... there have been so many other things going on in my life. I forced myself to go out this arvo and see if I could get some shots and these are what I ended up with.

Sorry about the small size... I'm getting paranoid about people taking the shots off my website.

edit: not sure why the images aren't showing... here are the links:

Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they didn't take your photos - afraid I can't see them either :cry:

Owen,

link to gallery is here as the links still report an error.
http://www.ausphotos.com/gallery/v/Shoalhaven/

They may be nice photos but at a size of 150x94, just to small for viewing :cry: :cry:

I think they're okay now... weird permissions were set when I uploaded the images.

Thanks for the help guys!

The second one is BEAUTIFUL - the crispness of the pylons on the pier in the distance, the texture of the water in the foreground. Really nice! First and third are nice but second steals the show.

I do like #2 - the waves and the clouds. Like to see #3 in colour, the old stripped paint of the foreground boat looks to hold interesting details.

Thanks for the comments guys. The 2nd one is my favourite too.

Onyx - I took the image for the paint in the boat, however when processing last night I lacked inspiration. Here's a jazzed up version of it... the blue is how the boat was, the red cast in the sky is my creative license :)
