Congratulations Bryan and Trish

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.

Congratulations Bryan and Trish

Nice touch and shot.

I could also go a 20yo Grange Hermitage.

Have you ever had a 20yr old Grange?
I had one back in 2001 for Christmas with some Family Friends. Very very very very very nice drop. Best wine I've ever tasted, then again it was the most expensive drop I've ever had. Most wines I drink are around the < $20. Occasionally I do treat myself to a < $50 drop.

Nice shot btw :)

hehe... they looke really happy and were taking turns taking photos with a P&S digicam and were having a few problems... and something like a 20th wedding aniversary should be documented :)

Hope you have an email address to send the pic to.

On the topic of Grange - I'm 50 in August and have a 1980 Grange waiting for me courtesy of my late father

That said - for the price of 1 bottle of Grange you can get a case of Lindeman's Limestone Ridge or Tyrrell's Vat 6. Guess where my money would go?
