They are excellent images and the colours really pop off the screen. Take care you don't over sharpen your photographs....this is a common fault and it tends to make the images look a little unreal. Nature is not razor sharp.

Thanks, re the sharpening the ps action used here to do the borders/captioning has a sharpening effect also that is only set to "low/normal/medium/high) and these are at "low" - I just do not know what that is. It's usually OK. But, #3 I did do some sharpening first in PS3, I think 100, 1, 0 and as a result I agree that it's over sharpened after the borders action

But, the 70-200 is very sharp, that's for sure.

These colours are out of camera too, only think I did was crop and applied some levels.

Great images! Love the poses and colour. How did you get the background to look a bit painted...

I might blame the Hoya filter for that actually
