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.

I took my new 80-400VR (thanks Birdy) out for it's first outing today and was pretty impressed with what I got.

This was my favourite from the Anzac Day March.

Plus the Horse and Rider shot.

More in my smugmug gallery.

Nice one John... You obviously had better light than we did in Sydney today... Most of my 80-400VR shots were very blurry...

I actually quite like the first shot of the horse & rider in your gallery too...
Cheers, John

Thanks for the comments John and Trieu. Yes the light was nice in Hobart.
I am amazed just how sharp this lens is though. The Horse and Rider shot was 1/60 sec hand held.

Cheers
