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.

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.

Photos from Lone Pine

I went to Lone Pine (in Brissy) for the first time on Thursday and had a ball.
So I thought I'd share some photos.

The first one isn't great but it's funny so I thought I'd include it. I can imagine the Eagle saying "Exit, stage right"

This little guy got stage fright and didn't want to fly to his handler at one stage.

Thanks everyone for your lovely comments. I was able to get pretty close to the wildlife there, was fantastic.
I'm going again next week with a friend and her son. :)

Chris - they are bloody great shots - well done !!!!
That first shot is wonderfully timed - you don't often see such a regal and majestic bird looking, well, goofy ?? :) I love the emu, the owl is beautifully exposed with no blow outs in the white plumage and a gorgeous catchlight in the eye !!

LMAO @ the first one!! Its a classic!!

I also adore the Emu image too... the composition is superb... the side on angle is a pleasant change from all the front on cutesy emu shots that we tend to take normally... really good work... :)
The last thing I want to do is hurt you... but it's still on the list... ;)
