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.

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.

got to use my xmas present today...the R1 kit. love it !
awesome is all i can say about it. for this shot i used the d300's tripod mode for AF. turned the sbr pilot lights on and it locked on AF immediately. BRILLIANT !
the R1 lets you get places you could never go with regular strobes and its sooooo easy to move the lighting around to dodge leaves, branches etc. this little guy was tucked into the middle of the bush, i just shoved my cam in there and positoned the sbr's, mashed the AF button and bingo....
great exposure, nice natural looking colours, very few shadows, maintained very good light fall off for the DOF unlike proper strobes sometimes and excellent sharpness you can only get from flash. this is around an 80% crop, unfortunately i couldn't get my cam closer. next time...
very happy with the R1, highly recommended for macro shooters.
