The most valuable gift an artist can receive is a thoughtful and honest critique.
Although I had done a good deal of painting before developing a passion for art photography, a turning point in my development came during an early week long workshop with Freeman Paterson in which we would choose our 10 best images each day (slide film was processed during our supper hour).
These projected images were critiuqued by this unusually sensitive and civilized photographer.
I left that workshop feeling I had learned more in one week than i could possibly have learned in years of working diligently alone.

Thank you, I am the founder of a photo critiquing and discussion group at BetterPhoto.com (BP Club, Friends for Finer Photography) and you have said what have been my sentiments all along. The club was set up mainly to encourage members to view, discuss and critique other members’ images and by doing so, improve their own photography and it is working very well. I directed the members of the group to this page for reference. Again, thanks.

I agree with your list, but in point #7 I wouldn’t restrict myself to what I’d say about stuff that can’t be done in the darkroom.

As you stated earlier, it’s about improving the photographer, not the single photograph.
