Loving 2. Nice sharp picture, good colours, subject well separated from the background.

Finding quite a few others aren't looking as sharp or vivid on my monitor though?

there all un-touched as i dont have a clue how to use photoshop.
taken with different lenses on different days aswell so could have an affect

Loving #3 the eye contact is awesome.

In light of the fact that these are straoght out of the camera they are pretty good. One or two are a tad soft but the one's that aren't are nice. #2 is very good and #10's good too. Where your images are soft I thinks it's a case of misfocusing (see 18) and too slow a shutter speed. Having said that the slow shutter works well in #21.

It might be worth treating yourself to a copy Photoshop Elements and have a play with the basic fuctions such as exposure, contrast and sharpening

I've been to Colchester Zoo and it's a great place. Keep going and keep shooting!!

i just got a laptop with elements 7 already installed, i just don't have a clue how to use it.
might buy a book that gives me a walkthrough guide or something

#2 is good, really sharp.

I didn't realise they had new Lions already. I'll have to get down there soon to have a peek as I live literally round the corner.

ETA: Check out YouTube for video tutorials on photoshop. I have found some great ones on there!
