A certain member has requested that I post some original work instead of commenting on others...

Here goes..

Neighbourhood Cat
ISO 1600 with very low available light

Port Stephens (bit of beach that wasn't polluted by the 4WD)

Comments criticisms are much appreciated. Thanks!

I really like the second shot in all respects bar one - I think it's a little TOO soft. Otherwise great work (and about time we saw a pic from you :wink: )

The images aren't showing up in the post either -

this is being displayed for me:

However, copying the image address and opening it in a new window seems to work.

#2 - I like it, but feel it could do with a little less softness in the foreground as well - I seem to be hunting across the image to find the focal point.

No images for me either, and why is the 'certain member' name-less? :)

surenj what was the reference to pollution and 4WD? Would you care to explain.

Images no show here as well.

I think I'm the nameless one... Suren just needed a bit of a push to post something! :D

Depth of field works well in both - although I agree that the second is possibly a bit soft. Keep them coming!!

is it just me or are the footprints flanked by tires ruts?

I think the 'tire ruts' were just natural... Some of the port stephens beaches are a bit 'polluted' by 4 wheel drives in my opinion.

I did soften the first photo with a gradient perhaps went too far... :)

Sorry if the pictures couldn't be displayed for some people. I am yet to find a good service for photos on the web. Unfortunately google doesn't work well with hotlinks and Flickr doesn't agree with my firewall ;)

Thanks for all your critique...
