    frog #1
    No, I'm not the Geico Gecko
    I'm cuter!!!


    NOTE: I thought the above was a tiny bit funny, but everybody else thinks it silly
    and this is REALLY a tree frog
    each to his/her own
    I just take the pictures, I should let """she who must be obeyed"""
    do the captions
    Xti/24-105L by the way with flash

    frog awaiting dinner
    If I'm patient, something will come along
    and then .....bang.....its ALL mine
    I can move sooooo fast
    when the sprit moves me so to do
    meantime, keep perfectly still
    even when this ahem...person ....flashes me with his darned flash
    on his Xti/17-85 EF-S/flash

    well. I'm similar
    I don't really exist either

    its me again
    me, taken at night with flash to see the web structure
    spiders are amazing in how they spin webs
    I never realized this before digital photography came along
    I'm sure many people did, but I didn't

    interesting bug
    I'm sure the bug experts know what it is
    I was just testing out my skills with the 100-400L at 400 mm
    for when I get back to aircraft photography

    Racoon
    Also taken by my wife on an HP R967
    They were so tame they came to eat during the day when the kids were asleep!!
    Sadly, most people here shoot them, we just like to take pictures.
    If the whole world behaved like that we would all be better off.
    Yeah, photographers!!!

    The Water Oak
    Taken on my newly acquired (swapped) Sigma 10-20 mm lens at about 18mm x 1.6x
    great lens, in my humble opinion....
