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.

Well, after a weekend of Colour problems on my Computer :x :x

Hopefully this nails it :roll:

Picture was just adjusted slightly in Levels, a bit of USM, then INVERTED
Presto :shock:
I think it looks cool anyway.

If the colour turns out right, maybe you will like too ??

Mic. :wink:

Colours are VERY interesting. Thereas a very pael brown background. The leaves are a nice pastel purple. The flower has the most amazing, almost iridescent, blue pollen centre fanning out to more pastelly purple, then pastel greens darkening into deep almost black green petals with pale pstel green at the very tips. (oh and the bottom left corner "leaves" have a dark purple rim)

Thanks Chris,

I'm back :D The colours even look good on my work Computer which is really saying something.

I think if you have a Mac my others I posted would have still looked pretty close to the mark in what I saw on mine.

But PC's didn't.

I hope this puts it all to rest.

Yes, I really liked my Inverted Flower Shot.

Cheers,

Mic. :wink:

I think you solved your bright color problem, Mic. This one looks very bright and colorful on my PC. :D So, does that mean that all of your future shots will be inverted? :P

Thanks Kerry,

Yes, I thought I would start over with a fresh bright colourfull little flower.

Just a few more coming up to be inverted, I like what it does to some things.
