Topic: HDR Subjects / Great subject no available shot! One thing that really gets to me is seeing something awesome and not being able to get a decent shot. 10 minutes later I am walking back to the car and this beast came roaring past me. If only I had waited a few minutes I could have asked this guy to park it somewhere else for a moment. Looking back I should have taken at least one photo! It reminds me of the recent photo of the day of that bike with the people in the background. Just thought I’d share this. |

Topic: Charts and Awards / Great postings I have never seen so many great postings as to day. The quality of the postings are very high in this days, getting a POD is not easy at all. My own improvement, and my HDR skills comes from those who have voted and given coment, not only on my post, but all postings.A big thank you to all. |

Topic: Advice and Comments / Where is the critique ? Unfortunately, on this site, well-meaning constructive criticism is usually taken as an attack. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve been retaliated against by someone who has rated all of my images with a 3 rating because there was something about his work that I criticized. As a result, i never give anyone a rating below 9. A 9 is a ticket to at least mention a few things that need improvement without the person feeling attacked. Most of the photographers on this site think they already know everything and are not posting their photos here because they want to learn. So they don’t learn, and you see beautiful photos with blown-out highlights and shadows that are black as ink. Some of these photos make it to Photo of the Day. But it is not my job to force someone to learn who doesn’t want to learn. |

Topic: Advice and Comments / Where is the critique ? @Geri, you are correct about the lack of critique on this site. While the site professes to be ”The reference website for HDR photography” is anything but that. Actually this site is best described as an online photo club where the posters come to live their Walter Mitty* existence as photographers. This is really a site about inflating egos and patting each other on the back. It is not about improving ones craft. I believe the only way one can improve is not only through shooting but through dialogue and narrative as well. Ignoring and failing to offer honest critique of a person’s image does not promote the art nor does it help someone improve. Telling someone that the image is great, perfect, etc does not help a true photographer or artist in any way. Unfortunately, that is all that exists on this site. Surprisingly, others feel the same way too. I received a private message from another poster yesterday (upset by my comments on his work) saying that HDR Crème is: “…a low level amateur site, that is not taken too seriously and should be taken as such.”It made me wonder why he posts his work here if that is how he truly feels. I have taken a look and your website and I must say that your photos are superb; I seriously doubt that you would benefit from posting any of your work here. *My apologies for a decidedly American reference however, it truly fits this situation. A Walter Mitty person is: “a commonplace unadventurous person who seeks escape from reality through daydreaming.” (http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/walte…) |

Topic: Advice and Comments / Where is the critique ? I would suggest that you try to send that member a mail Inkslinger, to find out what that member means about the voting. I personaly tries to vote as honest I can, and if there have been more space to write in, I would have writen a better critic, and more detailed critic. I sometimes find errors on images, and are somtimes confused . Should I write what I see, or dont vote at all, wich I find not fair. There is so many good images on this site, that are a pleasure to look at, but my own improvment has been inspired by coment, low ratings or high ratings, and an explanation why it has been done soo by the voters. That is a great joy to see that the votes has been better time by time. A low rating cant bee wrong if the the person who gives that are honest and tries to help improwment. I am very pleased by a critic that helps. |

Topic: Advice and Comments / Where is the critique ? I have no problem with a low score, there are many members on this site who have years of experience in photography & HDR. I have only only been a member for 10/11 months & have learnt so much from them. Alas, there is a certain member who ARE VERY NEGATIVE & RUDE on other posts. One member who’s work I used to & still do admire but have stopped voting on his posts because of his rude, abrasive, negative comments on other members posts. It’s not so much my personal posts that he has said negative remarks about, it’s watching his comments day after day……on 95% of others members posts that have me decide on this view……..nothing strange about this…… |

Topic: Advice and Comments / Add your HDRCreme.com enhancement suggestions The main thing I think would improve the site would be keeping the authors of photographs anonymous for twenty four hours after posting to ensure fair voting, this has been mentioned a couple of times already in the forum and would be a big improvement in my opinion. |

Topic: Charts and Awards / No offense, but... Randall is quite correct. All images posted should be annonymous for twenty four hours, this would stop two things that happen regularly. The first is that people vote down other images regardless of how good they are to promote their own, and secondly it would stop this ridiculous idea of you voted for me so I will vote for you scenario which is all too apparent on this site. Having too vote on images that you have no idea who has posted would make the system at a stroke much more fair and must be easy too do, we would then get real critiques. |

Topic: Charts and Awards / No offense, but... @bjosted. All very good points — the question is will the voters actually start providing a honest, serious and useful critique of the photo’s posted here. I seriously doubt it since this site is really about feeling good an not improving one’s craft or skill. The lack of critique is why I don’t recommend this website to my students. |

Topic: Charts and Awards / No offense, but... I try my very best to be objectiv when I make my votes.The person who have postet the image dont affect my vote at all.A good post deserves a good vote. But I am a bit confused about some votes on images with obvius errors gets a 9/10. I also think that a single RAW shot have to bee incredible good to get a 10. Single RAW shot,is NOT HDR, and can never bee. Some of the singles are very good photos ,but thats all. You cant invent somthing from nothing.But as it is said many times,if I give someone a 7/8 there is a lot of noise gooing on imediatly,I can feel the atmosphere at once. And that is a pity,because, the posters gets nothing back to improve their photograph skills,and that is what its all about, or what…………. |

Topic: Charts and Awards / No offense, but... While, this site professes to be “The reference website for HDR photography” the truth is that is really an nothing more than online equivalent of a local photography club where you go to praise each other’s work (regardless of quality or execution of the craft) and then go have beer. Let’s face it, those who post to this site don’t seek improvement – they only seek to have their ego stroked and fuel their Walter Mitty fantasies that they are great photographers. To give something other than a 9 or 10 and offer honest critique is sacrilege and you will soon be ignored or most likely attacked for your comments. Look at the number of posts to this web site in the forums — only 1,115 posts? This is an indication that dialogue and thus improvement is not important here. Also, how is the PoD chosen? There is nothing listed anywhere on this site about the metrics or criteria on how it’s chosen. My suspicion is that Carlo simply picks the one he likes best and awards the PoD. Regardless of how it’s chosen some transparency would be beneficial here. |
