Pixiq

Some of you will have noticed I've introduced a new weekly feature here on Pixiq; Video critiques! The reason why I've done this is that I'm a huge fan of photo critiques in general, but it turns out that written critiques aren't the best of forums for doing that: They get very technical and text heavy, and some times, there simply isn't that much to say about a photo.

So, I've now started doing something much more fun: Video critiques. With the ability to point to particular parts of an image, speak about it in more detail, and share some of my thorughs about a photo, I hope it can benefit not just the person I'm critiqueing, but also everybody else: After all, there's only one thing that's better than learning from your own mistakes, and that's to learn from someone else's!

How to get your own critique

To get your own photo critique:

• Get a Flickr account
• Upload a high resolution version of the photo you want me to critique. (I need to be able to zoom in to show things, so normal-res photos aren't eligible, I'm afraid).
• Once it's uploaded, add it to the Critique by Photocritic pool on Flickr, and I'll go through and pick a new photo to critique - hopefully one per week, if my schedule permits. 

Enjoy!
