Rethink Your Lash Look

- Check out those eyelashes on Astro one of the kangaroo mob at the Virginia Zoo in Norfolk Virginia. I know many women would spend a fortune to get lashes that long and thick and these are wasted on a male kangaroo who doesn't even have a female roo to bat those lashes at. You see the mob at the zoo are all males, apparently its the only way to keep the peace. Canon 7D, 1/2500 sec @ f/2.8, ISO 200, zoom at 170mm focal length.

Krazy Kat

- One of my close friends once commented about first meeting our cat Sasha with "David, that's one crazy cat you've got there." Well that she is! Recently she has taken to sitting on top of opened doors looking down on us mere humans. Canon 7D, 1/60 sec @ f/5.0, ISO 800.

Bunny Portrait

From 2010 Blog

- This wild rabbit has been seen in our yard off and on all year. This evening he was just sitting there and I got close enough to make this portrait. Canon 7D, 1/25 sec @ f/5.6, ISO 800, 400mm focal length, image stabilization on, camera braced on a fence post.
