[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I had the chance a little while ago to do a few day walks in the Gredos mountains, which are quite near Madrid. I came upon these Ibex near the 'Victory' refuge and was surprised by their friendliness. Previously when I have seen Ibex its been difficult to get shots due to their shyness, but these were literally eating from our hands.

Hi David, very nice and clear picture of these cute animals. Colours, composition and DoF are all very good, but the colour of rocks at the BG. is a bit strange. Anyway very nice first post.:)
Welcome to TN.

First I'll say welcome to TN David, I hope you enjoy your time here. Second, what a lovely first post, I love this shot of this adorable animal. The lichen covered rocks in the background are perfectly blurred, the one peeking around the Ibex in the foreground has such an adorable expression. Their fur is nicely clear and sharp, I think the composition is wonderful. All in all quite a masterpiece I think, well done, and welcome.

Nice first post David. I wish to see the front feet of the ibex, hope next time :) The strange colours on the BG rocks are the cause of the lychens ı think. Good sarpening on eye and DOF. Welcome to TN. All the best,

A very good first shot. Good sharpness on the main subject. The background is quite distracting but still interesting. Try to get the feet in next time. Listen to your critiques and you'll improve immensely :)

Hi David.. very nice capture to begin. Good sharpness and nice pose of the subject. Well done!

Bem vindo ao Trek Site..!!!
Boa foto para começar.
Continue....

Algumas dicas:
- Coloque sua câmera em introdução...
- Visite sempre os membros para dar uma crítica principalmente nos que estão sem ou pouca, aqui existe uma espécie de retribuição entre os membros! Observando (e criticando) erros e acertos de outros membros traz muito aprendizado!
- Faça uso do workshop.
- Coloquem sempre mais de 4 linhas em NOTAS. Isso habilita dar pontos pelos membros, ou seja habilita o USEFUL!
- Aproveite o que é permitido no Site: até 800 pixels em um dos lados da foto. Até 200 Kbs no tamanho do arquivo!
- Não se costuma colocar nomes ou datas diretamente na foto. Se quiser ponha em uma moldura!
- Comentários (comments), mesmo com a caretinha alegre (2 pontos) não pontuam o membro, só crítica potua!
- Se você achar que a crítica recebida de um membro foi boa coloque um USEFUL (é só clicar) para ele.
- Leia o SOBRE (e FAQ)!
Tenho certeza que vai aproveitar sua estada no site!!
Aproveite!
Obrigado!
