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.

Hi Guys, Finally managed to find the time (and courage!) to post some of my images for your C&C. I spent Christmas in Singapore and dropped into the Jurong Bird Park to test my new D300. The D300 in general is definitely an step up from the D200 IMHO and like everything in life, it's ability to be completely customisable is both it's blessing and curse. The AF system takes a little to get used to, especially bird-in-flight shots requiring very quick AF-changes but it does deliver 80% of the time (the 20% of failures is due to operator errors at this stage.. you know.. those moments of "damn you focus drive lever.." and "oh.. so THAT'S what that setting does..."). All shots are on the D300 and Nikon 70-200mm f2.8 VR except for the red budgie pic which was on the Tamron 17-50mm f2.8.    http://eimund.com/photos/g2data/albums/Adventures/SG-Birdpark/_EIM1915.jpghttp://eimund.com/photos/g2data/albums/Adventures/SG-Birdpark/_EIM1923.jpghttp://eimund.com/photos/g2data/albums/Adventures/SG-Birdpark/_EIM1945.jpgAny and all C&C appreciated, Cheers! eyecee Edit: gstark: Please take a moment to read the FAQ, paying particular attention, in this instance, to our posting guidelines.

I really like the second, the fourth and the last. They are all pretty sharp and some good colours. Well done on posting some pics - it's scary but will only help you improve!

I really like the last, and think you should print it! its shows so much detail you just dont see in person.
depth of focus just a little shallow, but nicely captured

I think they're a little on the side of overexposed, but I really love that second one. I think it works as a real 'image'.

I also love the owl. Have you thought about cropping out the OOF face under the glove?
