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.

These were definitely the pick of the bunch from last night's outing.
I plan on getting these printed out in large format, possibly as vertical panos or on canvas.
Only PP i did was to increase the shadows a bit and decrease the exp comp as the background lights were a bit too distracting.
Not sure which version I prefer of the hearts as I like the heart in the first pic, but also quite like the swirl created by car headlights in the second pic.
For the musically inclined:
Technique: Higher f stop, low ISO, long shutter speed and wave the camera around

Quavers are my favourite from this bunch, especially as the coloured lighting of the different notes is more obvious. They're all a big improvement over the first lot you posted, keep at it
What would be great is some slow flash sync, so you can draw your patterns but then have a discernible building in the background. Try adding a touch of fill flash to the buildings  . Maybe a small thermonuclear explosion?
So join in the chorus, and sing it one and all!

Great stuff, Wayne. Last one is my pick. Have you tried varying WB and see what other colour casts you can come up with of the same image?

out of interest, whereabouts do you get your canvas stuff done.

I purchased a Teddy Bear this morning for the sum of $10. I named him Mohammed. This afternoon I sold him on E-Bay for $30. My question is, "Have I made a prophet?"

Thanks for the comments
Obz - no idea as I haven't done it yet though I have found a supplier close to my workplace, so will speak to him soon.
