The shots look good, but are a little small. It might be an idea to link to a larger version. I'm also surprised you didn't have a fish shot as your first image post

Posted: Fri Jun 24, 2005 11:14 amThanks guys. Now that u mention it the pictures are a tad small 
. I was too busy playing with photshop trying to frame them.
The middle one is the best focused one, the other 2 are slightly off. I was happy with the bokeh i could get out of the standard lens.
The fish pics will come later - my 105mm nikkor macro is on its way from Birdie as I type. My photography skills are developing (and my expectations of the photos I want) so im not overly happy with what I have to date. And there is my big bright shiny new tnak still in process of being setup, so when thatsready im sure there will be a veritable flood of pics.

.Posted: Fri Jun 24, 2005 12:43 pmGreat shots, I'm looking forward to the fish! I wish I'd never sold my two four-footers.. 
Posted: Fri Jun 24, 2005 12:54 pmI thought that these were pix of that very rare fish, the Northern Feathered Rosella Fish.
Just shows you how much I know about barramundi!
