Got a thin skin? Then look elsewhere. Post a link to an image that you've made, and invite others to offer their critiques. Honesty is encouraged, but please be positive in your constructive criticism. Flaming and just plain nastiness will not be tolerated. Please note that this is not an area for you to showcase your images, nor is this a place for you to show-off where you have been. This is an area for you to post images so that you may share with us a technique that you have mastered, or are trying to master. Typically, no more than about four images should be posted in any one post or thread, and the maximum size of any side of any image should not exceed 950 px.

Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy. So please do offer your critique of the images of others; your opinion is important, and will help everyone here enjoy their visit to far greater extent.
Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.
Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.
Please also ensure that you have a meaningful location included in your profile. Please refer to the FAQ for details of what "meaningful" is.

Hi All,
I went out wakeboarding a couple of weeks ago and snapped a few pics. I had a bit of trouble getting the focus right. I had the camera on both AF-S and AF-C (with C the wake kept getting the focus). I had it on Shutter priority and tried a few different settings. I was disappointed by the softness and the focus of the pictures. I used my Tamron 28-300, which would probably explain why!
Anyway, any comments on how to improve the pictures would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Marvin

LOL I do go on the board but it has to be very hot for me to get in the water. I had a go that day but can barely get over the wake!! I am much better at skiing and kneeboarding! Besides that, no other bugger is going to touch my D70 in a boat!

Thanks sirhc55 but they actually seem to look better on the converted jpg than on the NEF in terms of sharpness. When I look at the originals I notice that they seem a bit out of focus. I have done no PP at all on these so I'm not sure why this would be. The jpgs look quite washed out though compared to the originals. I think this has been discussed in another thread though!

Martian Marvin,
Great work mate, I really like the 5th one, the 300mm Tam is not world class but can produce great stuff, it's the photographer not the equipment that counts!
Keep on posting,
