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.

With all the storm activity at the moment and having a new lens to play with I was going to try and get some lightning shots.
The lightning wasn't cooperating so took some pix of the power pole instead. Thought the way it was being lit by the street light was interesting.
Am I on the right track here? Trying to get something interesting out of a common object.
50mm, 4 sec, f8, iso 200

I would not have a clue if you are the right track or not but the image is very well exposed in my book. The subject matter though is a little too fussy for my tatste.

Yes i agree with Oneputt.
It looks a bit fuzzy, or grainy??
Nonetheless, very interesting subject

Thanks for all your comments.
It was the way the clutter was lit that caught my eye. It looks very boring this morning.

Cool shot John . I enjoy photographs that capture everyday objects in a slightly different light (pardon the pun) . I'd try to have the pole parallel with the frame . I know theres no real rules to abide by but sometimes the horizontals and verticals can be distracting if they are off . and with the pole being the biggest thing in frame i found myself leaning a bit
