Thanks Harv,
this seems like a good way to photograph little skittish subjects: stack a couple of extension tubes on there and shoot

I really like the snowy and greenie, but that moon is killer too.

Beautiful images! I particularly like the composition and setting of the first shot, but I enjoyed them all.

Thanks Al,
had some spare change lying around the so I decided to put it to good use:D
BTW, you're probably looking at the moon from the wrong angle
I had no idea that the moon appeared different south of the equator, I guess it's time I did some traveling.

Ya know sometimes it's good not to look for awhile and
then come back to seeing the continuation of the creative magic !!
