No surf shots - Italian travelogue instead

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.

Thanks Shutter, great place for a holiday. Rome is, in one word, c r a z y.
The Roman Catholic church isn't my favourite organisation of all time, but the architecture, history etc etc of the place is mind boggling. Definitely worth a visit. In fact, I think anywhere in Europe is worth a visit, but especially Italy.

Coffee's good too!
:D

You've given me itchy feet.....I'm desperate to go back, it's been 10 years! Lovely collection of images and in particular I love the coloseum, a great angle.

Just wish I'd had a digi camera when I went, film processing was expensive when I got back. Such a magical place........

Catch you later, my flight is called out!

First of all I want to say that they are great photos. You are right that Rome is a wonderful place to take photos. And I really like the images posted here - images which I beleive demonstrate a good talent and a good eye.

However, I believe it is a person right to have their religious beliefs (or not to have religious beliefs). It is a pity that religious intolerance has crept into the forum through some of the minor words expressed in this thread - I accept that the words are moderate but clearly are stated to make a point otherwise they would not have been included. This is disrespect to Catholics who are members of the forum. The world is fast becoming a sad place because of terrorism supposedly based on a particular religious belief (I acknowleage that these are actions by a very small minority of that religion and not all members).

Does a forum on DSLR photograph and DSLR cameras have to join the madding throng?

This site is for comments on all things relating to DSLRs. Please respect other people’s beliefs and continue to post good photos, smart comments on other people’s images, interesting facts on DSLR cameras, software etc. and leave the bigotry to other forums.

Apologise for the rant - but I like this forum and, overall all the greate threads, information and photos contained within it, Steve
