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.

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.

These are shots from a recent trip to WA. First time i have seen the sun set over the ocean.
I used the Nikon 28-200 ED primarily on the trip. Some general thoughts of this lens are:
1. The focal range is fantastic, this is the first time I've used a "super-zoom" and the convenience while traveling is great.
2. Sharpness in "Dynamic" mode was appalling (not sure why), in the other 2 modes it's the sharpest lens i've used in it's price bracket, even at 200mm.
3. A minimum focal length of around 50cm means you even have a limited macro capability without changing lens (especially if you have a close-up adaptor on hand)
I'll post a more complete review of this lens in the equipment section and post some more WA shots later (amazing beaches)

Beautiful sunsets, they're a magical time to take it all in huh... I just noticed too, this is only your fourth post, wow the first posts are getting good 
I'd be tempted to have less of the dark foreground in the shot though (maybe a slight crop off the bottom), but that's only me, I like skies 
Cheers,

Lovely colours, the reflection off the wet sand is great! I agree with mudder about the foreground (in the 2nd one); also one thing I'd prefer with the first is that the sun be in the middle of the frame, but it's nice regardless.
