Thanks.

(Raises an eyebrow...) Try checking out your user control panel. I believe you'll find what you need there.

We had a dogsplash in our outside pool in Eindhoven (witch is the National Swimming Centre) where for one afternoon dogs with their owners could use the pool. Big fun time too watch.

The details are great Simon !

Fantastic shot Ron ! The dog seems to say "Help me I don't want a bath !"

Otis arrived at my door this morning with a petition from the Raccoons for their share of fame here in this thread......Otis is not particularly fond of Raccoons, but he did want to be fair....and Raccoons come around here every night to rob what is left of any Squirrel feed or whatever else they might find, so they are indeed "part of the family".
Otis says you have to be a little leery of "masked bandits", they are usually up to no good. He says most of the damage and thievery blamed on Squirrels is actually done in the dark of night by Raccoons.....

Who me?

Regards!

With all the turmoil and suffering going on in the world, Otis and his army maybe just what we need to keep our perspective on the world. I just wish that my pictures with the K5 would come close to the ones posted. Thanks Rupert, Adam for his work on this site, and all who have provided inspiriation, education, and a smile. Paul

Otis sends his appreciation and kind regards......now if you will just send corn, we can call this a great day!

Regards!

Corn gone...not good!

Sorry, I know, a broken record, but man alive I love this camera! Just step out on the deck and fire away, anywhere I point I hit a Squirrel, and the multi-segment metering is great when there are shadows and highlights all mixed in on the scene. My Bigma locks focus fast and sure, and the next thing you know, I have a Squirrel shot...I already had a few, but you never get too many, do you?

The look on the dog's face is priceless!

Great thread - keep them coming please - there are lots of members that appreciate the thread and the sentiment!

When you've got the goods, why not show them in their best colors? The K-5 has our vivid vervet vote.

Now There is something I don't see every day
