I have never told anyone the picture is rubbish, and I don't think I would. Its a case of knowing a bit about the photographer and how experienced they are. If they are a novice I suppose its polite to ask if they would like some advice and if so be gently but constructively critical. I will always point out the good things in a picture and then suggest what parts to change or look out for with there next shoot, but there is so much conflicting opinions and advice out there it may be best to be totally honest and let the learn by mistake a critique as we all have. Geoff

That sound fair to me??, ---But then again I believe that all politicians, local and national, Lords, landed gentry and bankers, are honest, upstanding, public serving, self ignoring, truth telling, hardworking people who have our best interest at heart and do and honest couple of hours work for a months pay. PS, Dont mention Europe Shhhhhhhh/ Geoff
