@Dredden85......Very nice lizard shot! For anyone unfamiliar with lizards in general.....they are EXTREMELY challenging subjects to photograph; many are very small, and are VERY fast! Just getting this close to one in the wild, and being able to get a shot this sharp can be considered a great achievement !

@Msmoto...........I was just wondering, were tripods and/or flash permitted at the Ford Museum ? That kitchen looks an awful lot like the one in the house I was born and lived in till I got married; As a matter of fact, when I was probably still in my early 20's, I ripped out the old linoleum floor in my Mother's kitchen and replaced it with black & white vinyl tiles EXACTLY like the ones in this photo!

Well, since we're sharing photos of our cats...

Here is one I took last night:

From MMKT

She might not have the fangs or even complete use of her 1 eye, but she has access to the knife rack!

...just kidding, I had to put her up there, but she was a good sport.

D3000, 35mm f/1.8 lens, SB-700 flash
1/30s, iso 400, f/2.0, 1/64 power bounce flash (I think...)

My share, a Raven that agreed to model for me....

Nice raven shot. Its not always easy to get the exposure right for their black tones, let alone whether the light allows for it.

D800 • ZF.2 100mm f2 @ f2.5 • 1/100 • ISO 250

@Gitzo- Thank you, sir. I was very lucky that he stayed put as long as he did. I found out in Africa that sometimes getting a great shot is like fishing. It may take a while, take a bit of patience, and in the end it was worth every minute!

@rschnaible- Great shot!

Posting a quick one between writing 8k words.

Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia skyline, mostly sky. Best viewed in lightbox. You can see the Petronas twin towers in this.

I LOVE that picture of the gorilla. Technically, it's great. The detail in the fur is spectacular. But also, he looks like he's having an existential crisis, which is always humorous.

Here's the other cat. She's the more natural killer...given that she can actually track her prey.

From MMKT

D3000, 35mm f/1.8 lens
1/25s, iso 400, f/2.2

I was trying to make the lighting look similar in post so I could show them together, which was tough because I didn't use the flash in this show, although I did in the earlier one.

pippigurl · February 2013

The gorilla is a she saying "...not tonight dear...headache!..."

@Pippi: I thouth she was saying "Oh no, not those darn spots on the sensor AGAIN!"

Downtown Disney at night. Just out for a walk with the family. Walking across a bridge on the way out I decided to stop and use the railing as a tripod.

Msmoto · February 2013

Nice, Billy....

Howdy, Stranger!
