Consequentially it is suggested that the bar has been raised, and we must aspire to reach these heights.

There are some among us that just cant reach this goal, may it be because of lack of experience, equipment, whatever, or just don't want to, and are quite happy enjoying this hobby at the rate of interest by them.

Competition is healthy, don't get me wrong, but i feel that some may be put off in posting there work because they have not reached that standard.

Shoot me down in flames if you like, but i reckon many among us, especially the new members will no post an image because of it.

im sad you feel that is the case leon , i have given up mostly critiquing on images at the (not professional end) as people can take offence (case in point perhaps), and that is not the intent i can assure you. Mind you i dont have a problem being honest with someone who has 100,000 dollars of gear as it should produce the very best results

You can improve your imaging by taking advice from your peers, you might suggest critique is done privately perhaps.

Your equipment may limit the tracking or depth but should not stop you improving your processing technique. If you dont post thats your call but ifeel you would be missing out on an oppotunity.

there is NONE here who could not improve their images, i have copped plenty of comments in the whats wrong with them..... too green, lacking focus, tracking off, overprocessed i could go on...... Some IIS members have a good ability and are able too pass that on to other members (jase is just such a one) and i have benefitted from his advice

I Sort of overanswered your post a bit but please tell us what you would like in regard to your posts( i say this sincerely) perhaps we can improve our attitude.

Cheers to a fellow imager

Clive.
