Beautiful capture, nice work, especially like the speculars on the eyes.

Well done! i find those little guys impossible to get them to sit still long enough to compose and take a shot!

Thanks, Andrew.
The spider was very jumpy and couldn't keep still but I kept putting him back on the moss until I got this shot.

Black Leopard

This female has arrived at Hamerton. This place rescues animals from all over the world, mainly endangered species, and they breed when they can.

A couple of old photos taken while the Amtrak was stopped - somewhere in Colorado, I think?

(And yes, I like that the vertical leans!)

I've photographed Ady a few times now. We get better each time as a team. This image was a fave from our latest session. I hope you like it to.

Just a heads up for anyone that may be interested (and as things are slow in the group.....).
