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.

I spent last weekend on the Gold Coast, both days zipping off into the hills to check out national parks. Saturday was Lamington NP, and this photo was taken in the middle of the day on one of the walking tracks near Binna Burra.
EOS 10D, 17-40mm@40mm, f/10, ISO 100
This is a 17 Mp composite of four images (stitched with CS2's PhotoMerge). I didn't have an MPR rail (now there's a tautology!) to adjust for the len's nodal point (and thus parallax was going to be an issue) so I opted for a vertical pano instead of a horizontal one.
The camera's L-plate was mounted sideways in the ballhead's clamp, with the ball tilted sideways into the head's slot. The rotation was then done by simply rotating the ball. Not quite as clean as using an MPR rail, but I was surprised how little parallax distortion I had to deal with in stitching!
I did had some more frames above this, but they got washed out with sky light and flare.

Like it Dave, I imagine it should look quite good in a large view. I thought I was going to be looking at something to eat (and a pano of it, no less).

Hi Glen,

What else would one expect for the official Dinner pastrycook 
Nice one Dave, you went to a lot of trouble by the looks of it, but worthwhile result.
Cheers,
radar PS: I'll be there in April, on GC, hopefully doing similar travels.
