oh, ahahah, I thought it was a screenshot from a video game or something, i was like
That is pretty funny. Would be a neat display to see.
This tread asking for some constructive criticism got me thinking. Would anyone be interesting in having a daily critique thread? Somewhere to post photos and receive feedback (maybe a rating out of 5). Leaving the photo of the day more for enjoying the excellent photos.
Just a thought, I'll leave it up to regulars to decide if it's a path worth going down.

I think thats an excellent idea! I would actually love to post some of the photos I had already posted in order get them scored by the "Mac-Family". I would say instead of starting a whole new thread, to just implement it on this because, if we started a new thread with critiques then people would just be putting their photos in that thread and neglecting this one.
Fantastic shot!

Thanks!
I will agree that the beauty offered in this great state more than makes up for the rainy winters (at least on the west side of the Cascades...)
Thanks for the feedback, pdxflint. After the weekend I've just had, I appreciate these positive comments. I know what you mean about straightening, but I took the decision to leave the base of the wall as my horizontal reference - using the pole as a vertical made the bike look odd somehow. Perhaps there could have been a bit more of a compromise there, though.
I really wish I had a Sigma 10-20mm lens for this shot. Then it would've come out how I had envisioned it in my head.

How common is such dress in reality? It looks amazing, and quite comfortable. But am I seeing a holster on the side, and a sheath for a curved blade up front?!
LoL yeah it is comfortable, but this type of dress is only used on special occasions and on national holidays, this is what the bedoine used to wear in the past
Lovely mood on this shot (especially from the standpoint of an English winter
But, for me, the bottom half of the pic adds nothing. If you trim it away, it might 'tighten up' the composition, and accentuate the 'horizontality' of the shot (if that's a word...). And the flare, top left, is a tad distracting. Would this be a candidate for a bit of judicious tinkering in Photoshop? Then stick a frame around it, and hang it on the wall...
BTW, about a separate thread for 'constructive criticism'... I kinda thought this was it. We've had a couple of disagreements in recent days, but really on behalf of other people. That is: I've heard no-one complain that comments about their own photos have been unfair or unkind. Of course, they may have taken offense and simply stopped posting... but I don't think so.
Can we assume that comments are welcome, unless someone specifically says "no comments"??
The comments I have read seem sincere, well-meant and relevant. And, anyway, they're only opinions. No-one needs to take any notice of them...
ha ha we call those 'florida pigeons'.
Something simple for me today from the yard, testing a lens firmware update...

Very originally! Nice sense of photo!
Thanks! It's an early evening.
There's a field next to where I live, and, even though it's quite ugly, sometimes light makes marvels.

Mmh, just my opinion but I really like the sand along the bottom half of the frame... It adds a bit of contrast to the picture, which I like.
Kids having fun on Lake Windermere: lashing three canoes together and sailing home. There's a guy at the back, in charge, but he's laid back, taking it easy.
The kids look like they're going to remember this day for a long time...
