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.

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.

OK - I finally got around to processing some images from Saturday. Had a great time, got covered in lots of dust  , spent an hour cleaning the camera afterwards. Was worth it though. 
This first series is when Simon & Sue Evans came over the mineshaft.
Cody Crocker coming over the mineshaft:
I know that it is soft, but it was taken at the 300mm end of the 100-300 lens. Couldn't quite find anyone to borrow the 1.7xTC & 70-200IS L from for the weekend.
That beautiful little Escort:
And again:
The corner after the mineshaft:
And yes, it was a bit dusty:
I have more shots in this gallery here: http://photos.ozonejunkie.com/v/occasions/ROC2006/
The only problem I have is that I think I now need to regrease my ball head.  The dust just stuck to it, and it doesn't feel as good as it should.

Lovely presentation with the "Leap of Faith". By the angle you must of really been fairly close (tripod or monopod ?).
With the shot of Cody is the lens often soft @300 or is it partially due to it being slower to focus at that end ? (Sounds a little like its the Canon equivalent of the 70-300G)
Some great shots in the gallery too, I really like this one too.
Anymore to come ?

Yere, that isn't a bad shot either.
I have uploaded all of the "worth showing" photos to the gallery all ready.
The lens is often soft at 300, but from my understanding nowhere near as bad as the 70-300G that is spoken of. Canon also make 75-300's, and they are nasty pieces of work..... I saw prob 10-15 of them on 300D's at the mineshaft. The 100-300 is a step up from them, but nothing on the L series stuff.
I was using a monopod, partly for the reason of people seem to get out of the way when you are holding one, partly because I was shooting at 300mm.

Tristan, the first sequence works well presented as you have done it..The scooby looks unusual in white, so used to seeing them in blue..

Great sequence of the Corolla
Don't know about the new Rexes though - doesn't look as aggressive as the old 03 lights (the rectangular ones, not the bug eye).
