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.

A couple of hundred metres down the road from home is a tree I drive past quite regularly with a bit of character.

Finally took the time to stop and get the camera out :D

Very nice.

I like the warm tones on th tree in the first one.

The reflections in the lake in all three are great as well.

Finally took the time to stop and get the camera out :D

Those trees are popping up all over the place...you're sure they're not alive??
:wink:

I'd like to think that I am responsible for those photos, in some small way, since you had to go and find a dead tree 8) :wink: 8)

Awesome stuff Mark, really.

Thanks for the comments folks :D

As James has stated the subject for a comp on another site (Overlander 4WD) was "Dead".

I see this dead tree all the time hanging over the creek as it's only 200m from my house so I though perfect, that's the one. Just because it's dead doesn't mean it can't be picturesque. :D

The colour in these is simply stunning :). #2 is my favourite, but they are all great.
So join in the chorus, and sing it one and all!

I like them all, but #3 grabbed me the most.
I love the colours and saturation like most people :)

I'm sorry Mark that you have to live in such drab surroundings... 8)

Seriously, these are tourist-magnet shots. I like #1 best, it has got the rhythm, and I'm a sucker for blue-and-orange pictures...

Cheers
Steffen.
