Question

A Place to post work for critiques and learning techniques

In another forum (Photoshop), a post was made with a request for responses. I think that's a GREAT learning idea! Wouldn't it be great to have a forum location to share their work and learn by critique? Critiques can include feedback on how well the work was accomplished - but additionally about learning efficient, powerful, non-destructive techniques to accomplish their wishes. Does anyone else think this is a good idea?

    That's a new one on me Nancy.  I just had a quick look and some one was getting excited about their first sale.  I guess you are not going to sell any pictures unless you actually make them available, so perhaps we should start uploading some pictures.

    There's the Photography forum, but it only has five threads.  That's five threads ever.   ISTR Benjamin talking about it a while back though.

    There's no doubt that a fresh pair of eyes can make some very useful contribution to an image you have spent so long looking at you are not seeing it properly.  Andris Apse is one of our most famous landscape photographers, and he apparently puts aside a finished image for at least two weeks.  Then gets it out again to see if he sees it differently.   My camera club has a Facebook group, and they have picked out some glaring issues with some of my images over the years.  Completely missing reflections, for instance.

    So I think it a really good idea, and I am wondering if The Lounge would be an appropriate forum? If it took off and swamped this forum, we could ask for a dedicated one.  I'd support it.

    Hi

    I thought about this when I saw the thread and was wondering if it should be a sub forum in the Photoshop forum, but then I  thought that would be restrictive. Many images are made with a combination of apps, so why not a "Made with Adobe ....." forum. I would take part.

    most users only goto the one forum they like so Photoshop people hang out in the Photoshop forum and never know whats happening in the Muse forum i.e, I don't think another forum space will get you as many viewers but i could be wrong
