This was to improve our photo skills. ----------------- It is a good idea, but the real problem here is that one cannot look at the photo being criticized, and I do not have a good enough memory to agree or disagree. Even after 50 years of photography, I do not feel comfortable criting shots. I can tell people that I like or dislike their stuff, but I cannot make any valuable comments to help them improve their work. My experience is that in the several years I have been posting that maybe forty out of several hundred postings received legitimate critiques. I like a pat on the back as much as anyone, but I don't post for that. I post because it keeps me out there shooting. That is the benefit.
