The PORTFOLIO Pro is a consortium for the Pro and Advanced Amateur Photographer who is interested in a thoughtful meeting place to share images, get honest critique, and build a knowledge base for taking their work to the next level. We put a great deal of emphasis on Education. Our competitions are open to all who follow the rules and wish to participate.

We recognize that this group is not for everyone and that we expect a lot from our members (relative to other Flickr Groups) but it is our sincere hope that all who come here, get back more than what they put in. If you have ideas on ways we can improve or enhance your time here, go to the Suggestion Box for consideration.

New and returning members, please follow the link above to make sure we are all on the same page for critiquing. Remember it's all about education and not just patting each other on the back. To improve the quality of Grades and Critiques we encourage everybody to use the Critique Template. In addition to simplifying the task of entering the text and grades it also contains suggestions and hints on what to consider for each of the categories in the critique.


Click this link to learn about the contests and "HOW TO VOTE IN THE POOL CONTEST."
Please keep in mind that we vote weekly on the images posted in the pool. You can vote for up to three images and we encourage you to do so. The pool closes every weekend for voting and tallying but you can vote at anytime during the week but be aware that other images may be entered after you vote.
