NEGATIVE:

"Frog in a box" does nothing for me. It looks like one of those tacky effects you get with cheap software.

POSITIVE:

However the rest are fantastic shots and especially I absolutely love #4. I would have lightened up the reflection in the centre of his eye so we can see more detail.

Nipper have you got a fish eye? A big nose fish of froggy would be fun!
No not got a fish eye Smeggy i find it difficult to spot a image to use one on but love the ones sometimes posted on here i tried to lighten reflection seemed to make it to grainy:

Excellent results with the new lens

The colour balance on the last two looks off... the birds
feet are too blue? Auto white balance gets a bit confused under
the green light of trees and uses Fluorescent
thanks for all the comments , yes they do never noticed that, will keep an eye out for that, don't usually use auto, i also adjusted exposure on starling think it was slightly underexposed Davex. need to pay more attention to my p&p

Very nice shots

I wonder if you would use a slighty faster shutter speed if that would have helped getting sharper photos with some of these?

A good set, can only spot the kr by looking at the exif data.
The noise is a bit more with the Kr in the background and the finer details appears better with the K5.
yep it would Stefan but i was trying to keep my iso low for some reason , the light was changing a lot. Have'nt used my k5 for a while and found after using k-r the menu system takes a while to re adjust too , kept using one wheel
