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.

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.

Another great series Kris, what are you using for your wide shots ?
Shame you couldn't go wider with the last one, is that a hotel, musuem or shopping centre ? Have you been taking many candids, I'm hoping to on my trip but I'm worried about the locals.

Craig, I use the 16-35 F2.8L Mark II. Its great :D I've noticed it vignettes a bit but thats easily fixed in PS/LR.

I use the wide the most. At night I use the 35 F1.4L HEAPS because I like my ambient light alot. The 70-200 F2.8 IS is mega handy too! I hardly use the 135L i brought along also.

Wait till you see my Paris shots :D I'm currently 4mins walk to the Eiffel Tower and tomorrow I'm going to take over the tripod and spend some good time shooting it.

A few candids, depends where I am. Most EU's dont mind shots taken of them, kinds love it :)

Absolutley perfect. They are a brilliant representation of the mood and feel of europe. I can't wait to see the shots of the eiffel tower.
The best shot I got of it was from the line leading up to it. It was during the 'blue hour'. It looks great then.

There is some shutter blur up the top, but i'm showing you so that you can plan a beauty of a shot with your wide angle. I can't wait to see them.
