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, here goes, i've put in here 'cos my skin is thick enough to accept that this is not a classic, however i have just gone from taking - filing - resizing - uploading - copying to here - all with you guidance in the various threads, given this is all new to me i am a happy bunny....
thanks folks!
edit - touch smaller than planned - what have i done wrong? didnt want full screen but expected something say 4 times the size of the current image here - guess i need to learn how to adjust the image size - i used 800 on the long side with 'auto aspect ratio' so the short side looked after itself.....

Chris, I think you linked to the thumbnail, not the image. Get the image in pixspot at the size you want, then do right click properties, etc

Chris - the image is small because you got the properties of the thumbnail on pixspot and pasted that rather than the properties of the image displayed after you click the thumbnail.
Looking at the large version - there's nothing major to critique. It's a good shot - I like the cropping and the dark foreground works well with the glowing ember of sun at the bottom of that big curved hill.
