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.

G'day,
What else do you expect from me, the animal nut huh? Haven't been out there for a while so went for a sticky nose...
Just uploaded a few that were fun, met the friendliest Ostrich ever, kept wanting a scratch on the back of his neck... When you'd scratch him, his eyes would glaze over with enjoyment... 
Then the geese commandeered my camera bag! I had to gently coax (nudge) him off, and then they started following me nibbling at the bag straps and when I squatted down, they started nibbling at my shirt buttons! Was great fun 
Anyway, just a few for now...

Sounds like you had a good time. I think the first of the two ostrich shots is great and the one of the koala is a crack up!

great shots mudder - you are becoming an animal photographer par excellence - just one question and please excuse my ignorance but the ostrich looks very much like an emu to me - but then again I am no expert  Chris

You're probably right, I'm hopeless identifying species's's's, I always get these guys confused... Maybe I keep thinking of Ozzie Ostrich in Hey Hey it's Saturday... (hmmm, am I showing my age now?)
Ooh, cricket's back on soon!

Great pics.
Perhaps you should have let the goose take a photo or two, he seems interested enough.
Love the dingo. I'm glad that didn't get near you camera bag otherwise you'd be yelling, 'The dingo's got my baby, errrr camera.'
The koalas's expression is fantastic. I reckon you could sell that photo for millions of Yen.
And yes, it's an Emu, not an Ostrich. Have a look at the Australian Coat Of Arms and you will see the similarity (ie: not the kangaroo)
Great pics. Very candid and i reckon your eye for shooting animals is sharpening very well indeed. Steve. |D700| D2H | F5 | 70-200VR | 85 1.4 | 50 1.4 | 28-70 | 10.5 | 12-24 | SB800 |Website-> http://www.stevekilburn.comLeeds United for promotion in 2014 - Hurrah!!!

Would have been a nice day at Healesville too today. That first photo of the emu is great. I've never seen the geese there before but that is funny! Koala...sleeping as always. Good job Mudder.
