Continue to be impressed with my A200 and my new Tamron 70-300mm LD Di lens.
A few from this week, turkey at local "urban farm" and a gull at the docks when i was watching the ships go by.

Nice shots, but I think the first is oversaturated a bit... and needs a cooler white balance.

Hmmm you might have caught him at a bad time perhaps
....pity the gull is a bit oof around the head compared to the rear end which is nice and sharp, good bokeh though.

ps. The quick reply feature is good but you can't insert a smiley when you need one.

Cheers guys, all comments good or bad are appreciated. I will have to start focusing on the eyes. Was trying some different modes on the camera, the turkey shot was on the vivid setting hence the over saturation, i should have tried some other options but the bloody thing would not stay still lol

Hi pb - the bokeh is nice in both shots.

Just type a colon (i.e. ":") followed by a close brakcet (i.e. ")") and you'll get a smiley even in the quick reply box.
