Becky,

Lovely roses, sunsets and boids... Oh, and if I didn't say so, thanks for the helicopters and the parasailer...

That's about the way I feel about it. I've seen too many instances of criticism being given in a share form (and not just at POTN, but elsewhere on the web) and the OP getting all upset because the person making the critique pointed out the flaws in the image. A lot of time it is more prudent to not make any comment at all unless the OP asks for it.

Jamie, I'm perfectly willing to critique your images, if you are will to accept what I say, keeping in mind I only trying to help make you a better photographer.

when I give a critique or a comment of something in the share section, I prefer to say why I like a shot or why I don't.

Critique or praise is useless without reason.

I did ask.

I would appreciate some input

Now granted that is not critique my photo but is the same. And like I said in my rant I have think skin. Besides if I think you got personal or if I need further clarification, I'll pm you. I want be rude either. One of the last things in the world that I would want to happen is CDS etal to Ban me for being so. I'm not scared I have a dog, granted it is a Beagle but a dog none the less.

What I especailly want to know about is the bumble bee photo. You can't get a bumble bee to pose can you? So with the shallow DOF in the front of the photo what did I do wrong or did I?
