A few from down south

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.

all 3 shots are good ......... but if I had to choose number 2 would be my pick, as I like the rail lines, they seem to give a bit of mystery.....

3 quite different images here. The wekaest is #1 as I find it a touch too dark, but this may not matter in the larger version or when printed. Compositionally it's fine. Speaking of which - #2 is the strongest by far because of the excellent composition on it and the cropping choice enhances that well.

Rob, far from it. I took my PE class on a 156 km ride over 2 days and this is where we visited on the rest day. Yes it is one of the spots we went to on that first meet.

Beautiful images Big V. I've seen a ton of shots of the old fishing sheds down there but yours has a nice fresh feel to it. I reckon you could probably go thru your collection from this trip and make some stunning B&Ws.

Second Valley is a gem isn't it..friends of mine have a shack (sexy old pre-fab) down there and we spent a lot of our youth climbing the hills and cliffs and munching on hot chips from the deli!
