Holiday in Melbourne

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.

Holiday in Melbourne

Last week i visited Melbourne for the first time. I have wanted to go there for a long time and i finally had the chance. Its a great city. Very clean, great transport/road system, many places to see and great people. I will definately visit again soon. Armed with my Canon 30D and my new 17-55 2.8 IS I took many photos. I thought i might as well post a few of my favourites.

Some great pics in there, of the greatest place on earth (thats the G for the New Sth Welsh :wink: )

More seriously, LOVE the shot at Federation Square!!! The area can be a real eyesore, but you have complemented some terrible architecture, with city lights, and a marvel in the church on the left. (captures the unfinished jigsaw puzzle well).

I am also a big fan of Flinders Street Station, shot at night (I've actually never taken a pic of it, must get down there on a busy night). Love its color with the traffic, and ghostly pedestrians.
