Where is my wallet?

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.

Forum rules
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.

I can see the pic. Excellent as usual from you Chris. I really like the colour in this one and the detail on the bird is great. If I was being picky I'd say its cropped a little too tight.

Glen - the mac is fancy but the user is an idiot - I had loaded a pic with the same prefix and forgot to put the tilde0 in :roll:

Chris my inexpert opinion (I know only what I like) is that the colours are good the image crisp, but the background is too fussy and distracting.

I know, I know - I was black and blue afterwards as I slapped myself around for cutting the pinkie off.

I would like to have had the background clear of other birds but it was a grab shot because he/she looked as if they were having a sleep whilst all of the other birds were making a racket that would have woken the dead :roll:

Chris, that is a fabulous shot. Did you do much saturation adjustment to get it looking that vivid, or was it straight out of the camera? If so, what default onboard saturation/hue settings do you use?

Also – and please forgive me if I've overlooked this before, but I've honestly been searching – would you mind telling me (or pointing me to the relevant post) how to upload pics here from a Mac, as I've tried before and failed.

Cheers,
Tim

Hi Tom - I never use in camera hue/saturation I always shoot RAW these days. The main thing I did with this pic was USM 180/0.5/0 and just a wee bit of manipulation in contrast.

Okey dokey - loading pics via a mac - if you are with pixspot this is the method.

firstly insert from the menu bar [img] then the following http://www.pixspot.com/albums/userpics/ then the image file name i.e. _DSC4545 followed by .jpg and finally [img] again - there must be no spaces at all and before posting hit the preview button to check that the photo will appear in your post.

If you have any further problems just pm me.
Chris
