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.

Better get in before Stubbsy starts posting his images that he took whilst following me around. From some of the people that I have spoken to he does that quite regularly :lol:

Love the second shot the most Andrew! How much processing did you do on it? And congratulations on beating Stubbsy to the forum! :D :D

Yes, I love #2 also. It looks like it came out of an Aldomovar movie!
Very good. :D

Love the sun in the third one, and the fourth one is better than any I got (I think because you were further back in the bus, so got more of it in).

The second one is a touch oversaturated for me, but I know it is close to the real colours.
The first one only suffers a little from not being as clear as it could be, but that may be due to conversion for the web. I do like the way that the sky is blown on this one, as it emphasises the dunes.

Overall, nicely done :)

Nice one! #2 is the popular choice, and I agree. Getting the colours to sit still and play nice is a hell of a job (at least it is for me!), and that one is brilliant.

I was in the front row of the bus, so couldn't possibly have gotten that last shot - and the wind on that side meant that I had a lapful of sand by the time we got to the shipwreck, so I wasn't about to stick a lens out there!!!
