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.

Got a bit bored this afternoon so just went out to the backyard and took some random photos. I got these while playing around with the macro on my tamron 70-300mmG. Nothin special, but hey.

There is something very special about the first pic NJ. The two insects look as if they are co-joined :D

what do you mean nothing special? the first is very special it's a great capture and the contrast of the flower and background is great!
I would be very happy if i took this image,it's an unconventional and yet beautiful flora image.

hey NJ - the insects in the first photo are in cop .... um, mating :) They are seed bugs, of the family Lygaeidae. At the moment, if you look around, they are mating absolutely everywhere !!!! Well, not these two, but others of the same family ... well they're not sisters and brothers or anything.. but... I give up

Careful where you walk :wink:
