I'm still trying to get my head around this thread, (some posts while I was off and I missed ) so bear with me.
I very rarely comment in the critique unless there is an image posted with a question to which I can make a positive contribution to. If I lack any experience in the subject theme then any comment by me is fairly pointless. I can comment on an image that appeals in the gallery, and I do not feel there is any benefit to the image poster there in just saying it does not appeal. Equally so in the Critique Forum. After all, I assume the purpose of posting in the critique is to seek advice from the ' knowledgeable' in that particular discipline.
Re post #19. In order to do that, surely providing as much information relative to the image is essential. If this is not so, then perhaps I am missing something.
On the subject of various boards, I have a simple question. If these are to be critique, then why? Surely one place to post for critique is quite sufficient. If this is to be somewhere that people can generally discuss and post images in various themes within a single heading, then suitable threads could be started in the General Photographic Technique Forum.
All it needs is someone to stick their head above the parapet and get them going. Not a Mod's job as I see it.
