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.

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.

(sorry in advance for 5 images) My young fella has discovered trucks. he is obsessed with them. today we bought him this CAT truck and he went berserk. great time to give the 35/f2 a bit of a work out. The initial reaction... A bit of an inspection... YEE HAA !! this truck ROCKS dad ! and my favourite photo of the year so far... ROCK ON ! As much as i am loving this lens, it is not without one significant flaw, the bokeh under some lighting conditions is absolutely diabolical. have to be very careful with this, the effect is highly visible in a full version and imo ruins the shot. the effect can slightly be seen in the first 2 photos. a full crop from another shot can be found here. http://www.flickr.com/photos/10435080@N00/2425164750/

I like these very much - Rooz has followed the first principle of child photograhy and that is - get down to their level, and boy does it work

thanks guys. the last shot is now a very large framed photo on our wall and it looks great. btw: i think i went a little too far with the contrast in the eyes. first time i've tried that selective application after watching people here do it. live and learn i guess.
