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.

Well, I am sure this classifies as wildlife photography I reckon this has got to have been the most photographed water dragon of all time, this guy posed and reposed countless times as a plethora of funny blokes with dinky cameras attempted to creep closer and closer... Thoughts on white balnce on this one? I have quite a few of this guy but there is quite some variation in the colour temperature  This guy made friends with Colins bag on a step and I suspect his final fate was to a shoe of an unsuspecting walker   I wish I had got a better image of this multi-legged bugger but he was moving a rate of knots...

The WB looks fine to me on the Dragon! You go a stunner...the 105 in action again?
I would not have liked to run into that multi-legged critter when I was on the ground taking photos of Fungi! Where was this monster?

I prefer the second one here for
the angle, sharpness and colours.

yep! thats the 105, gotta love that contrast it gives, not to mention the sharpness! The centiped was on a log above the creek, however I am sure there was plenty of unseen spiders, bugs and stuff that we rolled around on throughout the arvo! colin_12 wrote:I do like the angle you took on the snail Gerry
I do have another showing off his yellow stripe better but I agree the angle in this one is nice

The first two a crackers! The snail is my personal favourite. While the centipede isn't as strong as the other two, it a bloody fast moving target so you did extremely well given the other two were happy to pose (at a guess).

Gerry - the snail is the standout here because of your excellent choice of camera angle and DOF.
