I LOVE the tiger! Wouldn't it be great if there was something near him to compare to see how huge these cats are?

Nice shots, what were you wanting to get? The Top turtle pic is good and the Cat is good, (could use a little more richness for his colors. The third pic is good forefront focus and has detail. I like them.

The soft focus in number three is fantastic.

Practice makes great photography. Tigers are animals over 200 pounds hardly going to be mistaken for a mouse in a photograph. You take good photos just learn to expose better and shoot more and learning will come. no one can tell you what to do in photography you have to experience it.

You can also enrich the colors by reducing the brightness. To me, the turtle and the tiger looked a little overexposed. The koala bear looks very good. I took the liberty of reducing the brightness just a little bit on your turtle and tiger just to give you an idea of what a small adjustment can do for a picture.

Looking at your photos, it appears your on the right way.

They look good to me, but then I'm not a professional.

You can also adjust them just using curves
but I couldn't resist running a high pass filter on them for sharpness.

This is what I meant," like to get & end up with". you guys have taken me to that point thank you so much. Two questions, what is meant by using curves, what is a high pass filter?

I think photogrl's edits are really nice. The only thing I would add to the edited turtle is to decrease the shadows. It is a subtle difference but I think it makes the details on the face a little clearer.
