Welcome to this critique thread. Please read the purpose statement and the guidelines/ground rules regarding participation.

Purpose
The primary purpose of this thread is to provide a forum where photographers can give and receive constructive criticism on one another's photographs. By setting up some basic guidelines we hope that this thread will provide a forum where the give and take of honest constructive criticism can help us become better photographers.

Guidelines/Ground Rules
The thread has very specific rules regarding participation. The one basic rule is that you cannot provide criticism on an image or comment in a critique thread unless you also have an image posted. To post an image to this thread you must be a participant. Participation in this thread is limited. Here are the guidelines and ground rules for participation:

• Participation in this thread is limited to 5 photographers
• Participants join the thread by posting their intention. You can simply reply with your intent to join by posting something like: "I'm joining," "I'm in," or just state your name
• Joining is on a "first come, first served" basis. The first 5 to reply become the participants
• Once the thread has 5 participants, no other photographers can join or participate in the thread
• Once the thread is full of participants all photographers will upload their image(s)
Please abide by any thematic requirement (e.g., landscape, portrait, etc.)
•The number of photos for each participant is limited to one
• Photographers attach photos as thumbnails (no inline images or links)
• Photographers post their images supplying titles (if any) and other pertinent information (the amount of information should be minimal)
• Photographers can only comment on their own images and reply to comments only when everyone else in the thread has posted their comments on the image
• Every participant must comment on every photo (except their own—initially)
• Every participant must make at least two comments, one positive comment, and one constructive criticism (which is actually two positive comments)
• Once every photographer has commented then a free flowing discussion begins. It is at this point that every photographer can comment on their own work and reply to comments, ask questions, etc.
• The participants decide when the thread closes.

bumpty bump - any more takers?

I joined this one not because I'm such a big self-portrait person, but because it's the first one of these Critique threads that I've managed to join before it filled up ;)

Looking forwards to some good and constructive discussion!

I agree with Yaron, I can wait you as long as you need.

I'll give this a go too! I need to shoot a new one today!

That makes 5!

Attached is my contribution. We must remember to give Pherdinand a day or two to upload his. Regards, Yaron

Hi Nico, we're waiting for your self-portrait - then the comment-flow can start.

Oops,
sorry for the delay:eek: , I'm waiting for a couple of developed rolls where I have a couple of new selfportrait so I'd be able to post within a few hours. Otherwise I'll post an old one.
Thanks for your patience!!:angel:
Bye
