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.

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.

Great colours Wendell #3 is my favourite apart from a little straightening needed on the horizon. I like the way the clouds frame the city skyline and really encapsulates the whole shot. Nice one.
cheers

Wendell. I like #3 the best and it's a good capture with a nice dramatic composition. #2 seems to have a lot of colour noise - is this a jpeg artifact, or is the original like this too. If so I'd suggest you denoise it. #1 is great too but looks a little blurry

number 2 is crappy because it was shot handheld at ISO400 it's originally in RAW format, I was just playing around with my new benro tripod as i noticed outside the atmospherics was getting abit wild, i took the camera off the tripod and peeped through the balcony window to get #2 handheld, lesson here always use a tripod in low light, i make heaps of mistakes and learn very slowly but at least i am aware of those facts.

number #1 blurry i got no idea, it was shot at f8 maybe a focus issue.
