Help with Critiques

[Cheryl Slechta]

Hi, everyone. A friend in my local camera club group sent me this link - http://1x.com/blog - and I thought I would share it. It might be helpful to give you ideas on points to bring up when you comment on an image. Of course, in OOTB it is a little more difficult because each post is an artist's creation and vision but if you're having trouble coming up with something to say this might give you some starting points.:S3:

Thanks Cheryl, I will give it a read.

Here is another series on how to critique a photograph written by Julie Kenward:

I would also ask that everyone who posts an image on the forum have the courtesy to offer constructive critiques to the images of others. A rule of thumb is to critique 5 images for every one you post.

Thanks! I've bookmarked them both and will peruse soon -- I've been busier than usual lately. Will dig out soon and get back to being more active here!

Thanks Anita and Diane:S3: Anita, I'd forgotten about Jules' critique suggestions - thanks for adding it!

Anita, the links to Julie Kenwards' critiques are very good and thorough. I find it very tough as I go by feel, rather than being too technical. I too find it courtesy to respond to 5 posts with every image.
