Wild bear. 300mm lens.

Comments and critiques welcome.

Roadside wildlife. Gotta love it.

Comments and critiques welcome.

Try to imagine this with the leaf in the lower left cloned out. I

don't have PS on this computer.

Comments and critiques welcome.

First day out with the new lens. Wow, what a difference.

Comments and critiques welcome as always.

Sorry, not very original I know...

Comments welcome though :)

Nice photo,

Given the wonderful coloration of avocets, I'm curious as to why you chose to set it as b&w? (I'm assuming it was not a film capture)

I think I bought this photo as a postcard.

Very nice shot.

OK, so it isn't a hornet. Hymenopteran at least.

Comments and critiques welcome.

Oops, almost put it in the "insect" category ;)

Comments welcome.

Very impressive image. Good to see that even with the setup (gosh that must have been hard to handhold) you could pull something like this off. Very nice.

"I didn't know spiders had pupils."

They don't. Nice touch. Or is it "nice catch". Was the pigmentation natural? Either way, looks great.

;)

Probably the most beautiful mountain in the world. Well captured.

It is a sight I hope to see some day.

I've been in a situation like this a few times. The thought of grabbing my camera is always in my mind. Never done it yet. Great capture.

I like the stalker look.

Very profound.

Great shot.

Too bad there is restricted access. But on the other hand, now you can take a picture of it without all the tourists walking around in it ;)

I think I might have included less sky in the shot but I'd have been happy to have just taken it.

Cheers

Wow, that is one interesting ice pattern. Have you been having strange weather or do you normally get patterns like this? I've never seen anything like it.

Well done.

p.s. I rated it a 6/6 should be a 7a/6o

wish I could change it.

;)

Very nicely done.

Congrats

Probably not the biggest or the most detailed macro of a bee I've seen.

However, very solid shot. You nailed the DOF (not an easy thing to do at the best of times) and the colours look great.

Live bee, hand held... Very well done.
