Hello everyone - just joined, so I thought I would post some of my photos from the last couple of months.

Cheers

All taken with the K20D.

Great way to start, Matt.

Superb sharpness and lighting in the bug shots.

Beautiful bokeh and accuracy in the wren captures.

These creatures all come alive in your photos.
Thanks for sharing.

Great way to enter the forum, well done. Of course you have set the bar pretty high for yourself now, we'll be looking extra closely at the next pictures you post.

These are marvellous and I do love that blue bird of happiness because he represents the coming of the first day of spring!

Great shots! I especially like the ant.

The wrens are very hard to capture and you did the shots very well! Good photography
