[QUOTE="Horoscope Fish, post: 226809, member: 13090"] Well, personally... I think in a "Perfect World" scenario there would be a handful of professionally trained, highly experienced and congenial photographers who were willing to give up some of their time doing things like running their business and actually making money to critique the photos of mere mortals such as myself. While I don't mind giving some general feedback on another posters photo from time to time, I don't feel I have the credentials to be considered any kind of actual authority on photography. That being the case I tend to hang out in the more relaxed "Feedback" threads. What has worked for me on those occasions I want a really in-depth critique of a particular photo of my own, is PM'ing someone here on the forums whose opinion I particularly respect asking them specifically to give their input. This has lead to some very good dialogues that have helped me immensely and I might suggest you try this approach. Taking the conversation to PM keeps it out of the public eye which can only be beneficial in my opinion. So, in short, I think the answer to your questions lie in the fact that most of us around here simply don't feel qualified to give in-depth, professional-level critiques, *especially* using the required format. I could be wrong of course, but I feel pretty sure that's pretty much the the long and short of it. [COLOR="#FFFFFF"].....[/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
