nice...i think oof is because ur shutter nt fast enough...or the croc too fast  laugh.gif
It was slightly front focused. Not blur due to slow shutter speed. The shutter is already sufficient @ 1/640.

Yea, nevertheless you managed to capture a nice moment. It'll be even nicer if you didn't chop off the left hand of the croco. smile.gif

Wot! Congratz on V21! OK, another shot from my trip to China:

Enter the dragon! tongue.gif

I had to switch DRO off to get the completely black silhouette! So strong was the DRO effects of the A700. biggrin.gif

From your exif, you were using evaluative metering? An easier way is just switch to spot metering and meter the bright sun behind smile.gif

I wasn't too bothered with the metering actually. I just used manual and adjusted the shutter speed & aperture until I get this desired effect (it was a rare occasion where I had some time to spare...). I had tried higher shutter speeds also, but I ended up with the sky being too dark for my liking. I thought this shot was just nice, almost completely blacked out the details on the dragon.  smile.gif
Owh ok. If your intention were to make the dragon completely black out then you can try the method I've mentioned just now. Speaking of composition, it's somehow like hanging there. Anyway nice idea to frame it with the rising sun. smile.gif

Well, you wouldn't know how many lenses you will be getting in future right? It's good to have a lot of choices rather than having a few choices smile.gif

Yup,that's right,but at the moment the range of lenses is more than enough for me  biggrin.gif  And yea,I don't talk gears,I love photography,that's it  laugh.gif
If you don't talk gears, you would have just stay with a PnS instead of upgrading to DSLR. It takes two to tango and the two main elements to tango in photography is the photographer and equipments smile.gif

obviously PnS wasn't enough for me that's why I came into dslr world,not fancy about those high tech high end lenses,
You'll start to fancy bigger and longer lenses once your wallet grow fatter, just like how you fancy DSLR over PnS once your wallet grew fatter biggrin.gif

It's all about budget. Once you have the budget, you might consider to upgrade. If you don't have the budget, you'll give thousand of excuses to not to upgrade.

True also  hmm.gif My next target is tamron 1750 maybe? For event photography? Earn some extra pocket money maybe  hmm.gif

That's a sweet lens. Good lens for walkaround, weddings and event photography. Just make sure you test kaw kaw before buying as some of the copies suffer from back / front focus smile.gif

I just got myself back a Tammy 17-50mm f2.8. My forth time owning this lens. Still loving the transformers focusing sound effect tongue.gif

Well, that depends. Even if the name of this place sounded so, it still boils down to the residents here to make it to look like it or otherwise smile.gif

Just curious, if you hate it, why do you still want to shoot it then? smile.gif

Perhaps you could work out more on the composition rather than clicking away.

Apply some Rule or Third, once you mastered it, break it!
