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.

The crow
I've concluded that taking photos of birds and wildlife (that fill the whole frame) with the 70mm kit lens is quite an effort! None the less this crow let me lay down on the rocks a few feet away from him to snap a few shots while he was distracted with a fresh kill. These involve being 2 parts photographer, 3 parts ninja

#1 is cool. You did well to get so close.
It's difficult to photograph a dark subject against a blue sky - the only hint I can suggest is to use spot metering. Even though the Nikon matrix system is excellent, there are some photographic situations that are just too extreme for matrix metering. TFF (Trevor)
