C&C appreciated especially on 1 and 4. 2 and 3 are mainly just for interest.

the last shot is excellent, leads in nicely and is not overdone, though it does feel a little weighted to the left hand side of the picture

The predetor becomes the Prey!!! I bet the pike didnt expect to end up as someone elses meal!! :)

Love the Greylag, although I'd be inclined to crop it fairly tight on the left. I like the processing in the last shot - it's not OTT like some of the HDR processing we see. :)

Nice sharp images.
The dead fish is a bit gory though ! :)

I work just outside Leamington and visit the park sometimes during lunch, i've even photographed a wedding there :)

Yep....excellent shots. Must try Pete's HDR.

Also look at post #18 here (http://www.thephotographyforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=4960) for KenCo1964's process steps for HDR. In my opinion Ken has the HDR processing down to a fine art these days......sickenly so ;)

1st shot is a cracker BTW

Thanks guys,
I'm encouraged to try a few more HDR shots and will look at Kens process too (thanks DJW). It can have some 'interesting effects though'.

Love the Greylag, although I'd be inclined to crop it fairly tight on the left.Just for you.

Great shots, fabulous clarity. I prefer the newer crop. :)

Oooh.. really like that last one, the framing and the shallow DOF works well there. :smilenod:
