Was at the zoo today and this little guy kept popping his head above the water in his aquarium. Handheld shot, very low light, was wondering what people thought...

    Hi LR1881...
    This is very nice! Must have required some patience to catch the little guy.

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    I think it's great. Interesting subject, vibrant colors, very sharp.

    Wow. Is that an IS lens? If not, you've got some steady hands...

    Wow! Thank you everyone for such kind words!!!!!!

    This was taken with my Nikon D70 and Sigma 105mm DG Macro lens. Handheld, because this little guy gives me NO TIME to set anything up before he is on the move again! I really just got lucky.

    But again, thank you all for the great feedback.
