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.

Let me know what you think, First attempt at portraits up Mt Kiera mountain on one of the paths near the lookout. These are straight from the camera at the moment as am still learning photoshop. Don't want to destroy her just yet.    This one i didn't realise i had caught till i got home. Storm started to come in while we were still taking photos and got the image below.

I like the third one best. Did you use a fill flash? That may have helped with the first one, the shadows under her eyes are quite heavy. Some photoshopping could make them better, have a go, you don't have to save them.

I like these especially the third. You can improve on the fill light as suggested as well as try different poses such as the controlled smile and the full smile to the laugh etc which may suit your subject's personality better. Does she like them? ; because that's the most important!

I like the third too. The angles are probably a bit extreme for my tastes in a portrait in the first 2, though I can see the intention.
