Great shots from everyone. More Common Lizards,this time with my Sigma 300mm f2.8 EX DG/K-5 these are smaller round than my little finger








Anyone have any thoughts on the the K-3 focusing compared to the K-5?

Where was that. Looks like the kind of thing farming boys think of doing.
Looks like farm boy antics in country Victoria, Australia from my reckoning.

Sorry, unable to reveal that - it's in a preserve dedicated to protect nesting falcons.
Country Victoria, Australia.... How close am I?

The one flying right towards the camera? Thanks! It's actually a Black-bellied whistling duck.

That was what it looked like to me. The tree is too big for SA and is not the type I have seen so many of in NSW, except the southern area around Wodonga and Wagga, where they play AFL.

7 life birds today. But usable pictures of just 5.

Light was good from 6 AM to 7 AM. Then the sun went away and thick gray clouds came in













I thought this was ok even though it is cropped to 2MP.



I stayed out for 5 hours, then decided I had enough of the Black Flies.

Oh, that's more than perfect... Amazing!

Exif info is quite surprising for me... f/14 and 1/250? It's a mystery for me how you could focus and then avoid blur at such "slow" shutter speed...
