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.

A couple of shots from a mates property in Kenthurst.
Honest critique welcome, no tantrums from this member
I may need to calibrate my moniter as well..
The wire fence really annoys me in this shot, I tried to clone it out but I need more practise. I would rather reshoot it to get it right to be honest.

You're right about the wire, but the rest is beautiful!

wow that second shot is amazing. Surely the wire can't be too hard to eliminate.
What lens did you take that with?

Thanks for the comments, I'll try and use my graphics tablet pen and see if I can get a better result with the cloning.

Paul - some beautifully sharp images here. With some time and patience I'm sure you could clone out that fence in the 2nd one...nice to see you posting some images too!!

I can see some Bot Fly eggs in the first shot. Maybe they should treat the horse and make sure they keep the eggs off as well.
Great shots BTW. Sharp as - shame about the wire.
Cheers, Mick

Okay, I've done a quick clone out and I've croppped the image to take away the distracting empty space
I'll give it a better tweak on the weekend when I have more time..

I would use the healing tool to remove the wire. Im sure it can be done quite easily.
Nice toothy horsey shot too. Different - I knew a girl who had similar teeth once. Shudder.
