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.

Well it's been a great weekend! Not only nice weather, but for once, I have a weekend off that coincides with that weather AND I also have the time to get out with the camera! So, I armed myself with the 600/4 and headed off to one of my local deer parks on fri afternoon thensat morn & afternoon and then again this morning before heading off to work! So, knackered but it was so worth it! I've had all kinds of light to play with from golden evening light to warm misty light at sunrise and then today, out and out fog with no sign of the sun until well after I left to go home  It's also the first time I've used the 600 properly since I got it 6 weeks ago (again, I only go out with the camera once every few weeks if that these days) so it was great to see what it could do! And I have to say I absolutely love it, so glad I got it...I just wish I had the chance to use it more often - and it is SHARP, wide open with or without a TC! No real stag fights, just lots of roaring, even so it's been a great weeked...  850mm (600 + 1.4 TC), 1/1000, f6.3, ISO 1250 Lots of early morning mist shots from saturday morning and they are all kinda similar so sorry if you get bored...  600mm, 1/800, f5.6, ISO 200 These younger ones had a little fight.  600mm, 1/640, f5.6, ISO 280 This one was walking nicely amongst the tree's, took several shots of him because I thought the bracken added a little something extra.  600mm, 1/800, f5.6, ISO 220

I love them all, especially the mist shots.
I would say these shots are worth the early mornings.

Them's fighting words.  Richard, yes, I too love the mist shots. They give the images a great feel. g.

 All fabulous shots, #1 and #3 my favorites. Makes me homesick too. It's great to see some northern hemisphere input on the forum, especially wildlife. Nikon D700 D300
