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,
Had the day off work, had it all planned but slept in! Damn, I wanted to get up to hanging Rock really early to check out the place in the nice early light but slept in, damn!

Ahh well, ended up playing at the Zoo instead, met another D70 member too (G'day)! Also chatted with a few guys that had their tripods setup, and I thought I was keen wow...

Anyway, you guys know I can't help myself with these dudes... :lol:

All these are really high ISO due to the really low light, the tiger shots are ISO800, see what you think...

Damn, just realised I haven't sharpened after re-size, doh! I always bloody forget that, geeesss... Ahhh well, maybe one day I'll remember... :lol:

The three Amigo's... Damn, must have stuffed up the focus as it ain't sharp...

This dude is so cute...

Walking the beat... With this one I simply focussed on a certain point and snapped when he reached it, not sure if I've really got the focus right as his eyes seem soft... I think the focus point was near his nose...

As you say, the first shot could be sharper but the rest are great, #2 & #3 are my favourites.

:wink: Bob.

Like wise! It did take me some time to explain DSLRusers to the crew!

Creature Features is on every Monday afternoon on ABC at 4:30pm

Not sure when the episode we were shooting today goes to air. Sometime in February I think. Here is the link to that "cat" picture I was talking about http://malnetau.smugmug.com/gallery/526249/1/21700174/Large[/url]

First picture of the tiger is beautiful. Good stuff!

What lens were you using? I only have a 300mm and find that it isnt quite enough.
