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.

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.

The last one is the pick of the bunch due to the lighting. Although the Westgate bridge is practical, it is very ugly. Not as ugly as the citylink bridge though. Why are there no attractive bridges in Victoria? There are plenty of attractive buildings and other structures.

Kipper , yes it's a good spot, so is the other side (city) for morning shots,
and Killa , they maybe ugly but nevertheless interesting subjects, and as a photographic teacher once said to me one dark morning when i had dared to question him about his choice of subjects for our assignments, ''Norman you need to learn to take pictures of dull boring subjects in sub standard light if you want to become a competent photographer ! ''
I bet he's turning over in his grave when he views my images !

Did you mean 25 seconds or 1/25 second handheld shot for that last pic? If it's the former very impressive :D
