Went up for one of Neil Mcintyre's Nature Photography day- amazing! I would definitely recommend them to anyone :thumbsup:

Got a few here that immediately stood out to me so thought I'd share them here :D and see what you guys thought- also if you have any tips I could use either next time or to edit these, though I'm limited to iPhoto just now :cry:

I like them, but I'd have to say they get better as you go on. 4 and 5 are my definite favoutites. I think with 1 that you've missed the focus: to my eyes (dodgy, I admit!), you're focused on the branch, not the squirrel. And in 2, I love the attempt to frame the stag with the trees, but what a pity you've lost the tip of his left antler behind the tree.

I like 'em all, but the last two are, in my opinion, the best.

You got some great shots there... the squirrel is just so cute..I hope you don't mind but I've done a quick edit.. curves, brightness and contrast and a bit of sharpening (as the image is small for web the sharpening will be a touch over done but you can see the idea)
