Few recent shots - C&C appreciated!

I fairly recently got a 350D (well, a few months ago now), so I've been going out as much as possible. I've only really got around to processing these now, though

. Any comments or ideas would be great.

EXIF data should be in the pictures still, although I think all of these were taken with the Sigma 70-300 DG APO macro lens.

some lovely pics there mate, that sigma lens doesnt look bad! I really like the first one, the second is good but i think its a tiny bit underexposed. The third and forth dont really do anything for me im afraid, but i like the selective colouring of the last two.

some very nice pics there.
good work

The third one has potential. You need to increase the saturation some more and really give the colours some pop. The second one is nice too. Don't really care for the other. Sorry.

Thanks for all your comments guys - really appreciated.

very much like the third one think it is spot on, squirrels are good but last two im not overly keen on cant put my finger on it but just something doesnt appeal. oh and ya borders to big

Very nice, though I must say i think the signature detracts from them a little.

The second squirrel pic is my favourite, but i think as was said it would benefit from a bit more exposure and a bit more space on the left hand side of the pic - rather than the crop you gave it.

Thanks guys.

Yeah, I cropped the 2nd squirrel quite close, as I didn't think the vertical line of the tree looked right off-set.

I've upped the exposure a touch on the squirrel and the saturation a bit on the 3rd pic. See what you think ...
