Seems we have a growing number of regulars. It's nice to comment/praise newcomers but I for one don't post to hear accolades, so really being included with "everyone" is just fine. When I first found CR I was really hoping for technical advice on my shots but some are thin skinned and overall it just doesn't seem to work giving/receiving honest appraisals since it often ends in insults. Personally, I'm happier receiving criticism over praise since that's the path to improvement. :

[Jack, I couldn't agree more, sure it's great to have favourable comments but once us "newbies" feel confident enough to post, (believe me I was a viewer for a long time before I did so) it was because it was obvious there were many people with a vast amount of experience than I could tap into from other sources for critique of value. So here's another image of mine I like, trust others will as well. Sitting in the car when this Reed Bunting popped out to feed, Quite smart in full breeding plumage. Harry. /quote]
