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.

Wow, you are lucky to have such a colourful visitor making a nest on what looks like your shed.
Great colours and texture in the surrounding iron work.

Not my shed.
This is Happy's Hut. One of the heritage huts in Kozsciousko National Park. I am part of the caretaker party that looks after it. One of the few that survived the 2003 fires. The fire took out the wood store about 3m from the hut itself. A friendly helicopter pilot dropped his load of water on top of the hut which is why it survived. Our other hut (Happy Jack's 3&4) didn't fare so well.
The swallows (2) were quite perturbed by our visit. Probably because they were sitting on a nest of three eggs. And the nest was just above the fireplace.

The swallows did well to get the horseshoe up there... were they African or European swallows...  (For those that are wondering, that was a long stretch to Monty Python's The Holy Grail)

A great beer. Best in winter. It is still made by the monks in the monastery just outside the little town of Chimay in Belgium. AFAIK it is the only one that comes with a champagne style cork (large bottle only) and is marked with a vintage year. Greg
