Great picture Winky. What equipment did you shoot it with?

Say hello to Phoebe, on a visit while her parents were on holiday...



OK, I admit, this is a deep crop of the original, hence the grain.

Here's some other four legged creatures, this time from Singapore Zoo.....











All shot with the same body (D70s) but with Nikon's 70-300 VR lens.....

Oh, and another one for a laugh!!



Cheers,
Ali

Thanks,

D300 and a 80-200mm F2.8 AFS Nikkor. ISO cranked right up (1600?) to allow both high shutter speed (1/1250) and decent DOF. Pre-set focus then pan and shoot at whatever FPS the D300 will do. The auto-focus can't keep up at all. It's a bit of a lottery, but sometimes you get them just right. Those little suckers are fast!

Nostalia! Thanks for bringing back many happy memories of the JWMs' honeymoon on Lake Garda in 1988. We were at Malcesine, but enjoyed a fabulous boat trip across to some fabulous gardens, at Limone I think, and down to Sirmione, and Virgil's exile mansion. One highlight was walking back down from the halfway cablecar station on Monte Baldo and being beckoned in by a hilside farming family to help celebrate grandma's 100th birthday - wonderful hospitality, fiery grappa (wooww).

Hi JWM,

It certainly is a fabulous place and i will definitely be going back. Didn't really do enough site seeing on this holiday. But the food, wine, people were great
