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.

OK, I admit it, I am wandering around looking at little stuff to photograph.
"Oooh, that looks interesting" (No, it doesn't)
"Wow, that texture will look great" (No, it won't)
"Hey, what are these things sticking out of the door?" (Er, no idea)
These are at the base of a screen door - it is where Lily (the cat) passes to go in and out.
There are maybe 10-15 small filaments with a white thing on the end. My first thought was some sort of fungus. Rosanne wondered whether they were cat fur which something had attached itself to....
Beats me. Bloody hard to photograph though.

I have no idea what the things are, but when photographed well like this and in this way makes it interesting though...
Cheers...

Thanks Gordon, a bit of net research indicates that you are probably right, very well done! Another mystery solved.

Greg, now we all expect you to get photos as they release their spores 
Actually its coming up to my favourite time of the year for spores- lots of toadstools in the forests where I sometimes go mountain biking.
Years ago I was asked by the local TV station in Tamworth to investigate a UFO report for them... which turned out to be nothing more than the planet Venus, and fairly rings of slime mould on the lucerne. The person reporting the UFO claimed it had landed in the paddock!
