It's not the tiger's tongue that is blue. It is die sprayed on the meat to indicate it is not for human consumption.

I particularly like the leopard portrait (#8 ).

Not too sure why the waters edge has gone blue, it just kind of went that way when I adjusted the Auto level?

Kids had a cracking time and so did I. First play with the new lense.

Nice captures, but I think you are over-sharpening a bit.

Nice set, really like number 8 but have to agree that the sharpening is a little harsh.
And that comes from someone who usually oversharpens their own pics

Thank you all for your feedback.

Helps alot when other people points stuff out.
Over-sharpening for instance, had a feeling I went a step too far but wasn't quite sure.

number 8 is my fav. (apart from my kids!:lol
