<p>We went to Kew Gardens last Sunday.</p>

<p>Went to Canada for our holiday this year. Took the 1Ds III, 16-35mm, 24-105mm and the 70-200mm plus 1.4x. Had a great time and managed a few decent shots. Here's what I believe to be a Colombian Ground Squirrel, shot with the 70-200mm + 1.4x at a campsite in Banff.</p>

<p>I just moved to a place out in Almond and Walnut orchard and I have seen this guy out hunting gophers in the mornings. He is a big cat and very fierce looking. I was a little wary of him at first as he was of me. It turns out he likes his head scratched and loves to be petted. He talks loudly all the time when I am outside with him with a voice that is not the traditional meow. I'm not sure who he belongs to but he has a flea collar and isn't around all the time. It seems like he needs a friend but he's a little jumpy. So I may be adopted by a cat soon, as he was lounging on my porch yesterday morning.</p><div>00ctSN-551857584.jpg.f7ac882e1ced83ea361c1f97dbefb08c.jpg</div>

<p>How do you post a photo here ?</p>

<p>Alan:</p>

<p>I point you to the test posting forum (see it under the list for forums). You can post away as much as you like and experiment there without anyone caring. You have to write a comment of some kind, and then you are asked to post an image, but only <em>after</em> you have clicked "confirm". The jpegs have to be 700 pixels on their longest side: any more than that and they will not show up in line. You also have to have a title for it to show up. Experiment on the test forum and then post your EOS image here.</p>
