First time feedback on zoo shots please?

[clairec]

Hi,

I'd be grateful for some feedback on some photos I've taken recently at Colchester zoo. It's my first post for feedback so please be gentle! Only joking, would appreciate your honesty as I'm going with the zoo as my theme for my C&G level 1 coursework.....thanks.

Sorry three more!

Personally feel that you have done well with the monkey's #1 & #5 - as they're looking straight at you... Love the tiger as well (maybe as its my fav man-eater)...

Thanks for your comments. It definitely seems to make all the difference if you can get eye contact.

My favourites are 1 and 3 and 5 is very close (could you clone out or crop that white spot on the left?). Overall it is good work just watch out for bright and distracting elements in the background and foreground

Really like #5, looks like he is studying you.

I think you have a really good set of images there. You have focussed on the eyes on all of them, which is very important, to me at least. #1 is my pick of the bunch.

Thank you all for your comments and nice to see someone else from Benfleet Vaughan!
