Some shots from today's visit to the You Yangs

[dearis]

Hi there,

I went to the You Yang's National Park today with my wife and despite the apauling weather managed to get the odd shot off.

One thing though, I enjoyed taking these pics, but where to now I feel my shots have stagnated. Any sugestions most welcome.

C & C most welcomed good or bad, still having trouble with DOF in the macro shots.

Regards Darren

hi darren, just love the piccie of the bird, and the second macro does it for me. I can't help with technical questions though. If you are feeling a bit flat with your photography, maybe a complete change of scene for a shoot? Do you belong to a photography club? That might help.

Dearis, I am a sucker for bird pics so I like #1, Now #3 I love, very well done. I have to get set up for some macro shooting. Also have to save up for a trip to Austrailia. Trevor

Thanks for looking and the comments,

if you ever get here and you love birds just know we have 1700+ bird species. I think they are my favorite sore of photos, always have been. As for macro, I am enjoying it so far, it's a real challenge.

Thanks, Regards Darren
