@ itsnotmeyouknow........I think Caesar should be in the movies! That's the cutest picture of a dog I've seen in ages! Or neighbors have a female white shepard named Molly; she's a really nice dog to people, but they also have two black lab males, and Molly is the "leader of the pack"; I have a male black lab, and a female border collie/coyote "mix", named "Steamer"; every time Steamer gets loose, she heads straight for the neighbors;
Molly is jealous of Steamer, always tries to eat her up; first time the Vet bill was $200 to get her sewed up; second time it was $300! So now I have to keep her tied up;

OH WOW!!!!!! Look what just popped up!
@ Ton.........Just wait till Proudgeek and Coastalconn see THIS guy! I LOVE Great Blue Herons, and that's the Heron shot of the year ! We have this magazine here in the U.S. called "Birds & Blooms"; I think they would love that shot; boy, everything about that picture is PERFECT !

A cheeky young monkey hiding from us. But just too inquisitive to stay hidden.

@Ton- Great shot! If only the birds would listen to me...
@Benji- very nice capture!
@MikeFrewer- good to see your new toy in action! Brilliant shot!

Dredden85 · April 2013

@Gitzo- Wow! What a nice hospital wing! It looks like an airport.

proudgeek · April 2013

Nice one Ton. Did you pay a modeling fee? One of the very few good ones I got this past weekend.

D90 | 300mm | f/5.6 | 1/1600s | ISO 400

MikeFrewer · April 2013

@Ton Absolutely super shot.
@bland Nice capture, I'll have to try and get somewhere near to that at Le Mans.
@proudgeek Very good shot.
@Dredden85 Thanks. It's so much easier than my D40. Everything is right there to change any settings.

Wow, April's sure starting off with a bang.

My share for the day -

Yetibuddha · April 2013

Ton, very nice. I have a bunch of Heron shots, but finding one that is close enough and in the sun, plus the pose is pretty tough. Good job!

April is off to a great start!

@ Yetibuddha You are so right, luck is an important factor, they Always sit in the darkest spot, Always a branche in the way, wrong lens on the camera etc. Coastalconn wrote it already.
