Now Where is That Tree????

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.

Nice work John, not your average tourist type shots, laughed at the first, looks like the road is too hot to walk on for the poor blighter.

#2 is cute, pity he/she blends into the rocks a little

#3 is my pick of the bunch, full of attitude, love it

#4 is a bit more conventional, up a tree style shot, he/she looks kind of bored

Craig, i could not beleive this when i seen him , we was at a place called Portland over the border in Victoria and down on the seaside kids was on the swings at play ground and this lil fellew was running down the footpath at first and so we followed. I took lots of shot but just chose a few for a bit of a laugh, had the polariser on but took it off eventually.

Also while on out way down there it is an hour drive from here, 20 ks down the road i forgot to grab the Sigma 70-200, luckily i grabed d70 so ripped the kit lens of and put on D2x.

I have never seen a koala that isnt up a tree. That in itself is amazing.

Tony, we seen lots of road kill on the way as well as went to Bridgewater first, then to Portland. This fellow was just coming down the path at first right on the beach front and was unusual to see one out of the blue right on the beach front, ming you i think he knew where he was going as he went down and mabe a B line to the tree amongst a lot of others.
