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.

Yeah John, you're right, first two bit out of focus, they were literally snap shots with a fully extended 300mm slow lens so the best I could do! Will have to clean up that dust spot, not sure if on lens or CCD? Max

Maxie, the middle gull is great against the deep blue, minus the bunny of course.

These surfer dudes need to think about these things when there is stalking sufer photographer dudes hanging around with big long Nikkon glass :lol: :lol:

Chris, the light was perfect yesterday, but only for about 10 minutes, then it gets too dark.

I think you're right, Harpo was very funny but my favourite was Chico and his piano playing, especially when he played the piano with a piece of fruit!

That 3rd shot is very cool, Max. :D

Don't get rid of the dust bunnie, they're nice conversation pieces, especially if they're in focus. :shock: :lol:

Yeh i think Max you did a good job, and i know it is hard and i too have a problem i think og hitting the shutter button to early at times instead of waiting to focus. This may not be the problem but seem to be one i have at times, something have to start to get out of the habit.LOL But i love your surf shots.
Cheers

Yeah John, I think it is hard to get the timing right, thankfully the D70 multiple shot function works pretty well and rescues some situations. Oftentimes I see a great aerial manouvre and then 'click', its too late! We'll keep trying!
