Thank you Patriot and Rupert !

fs,
Your photos of flowers; landscape; birds; squirrels & even the meals are all great, BUT the moon shots not so. And thank you for posting that awesome red sunrise again, that is absolutely beautiful. I like the water droplets lately.

Thank you ! How much did Rupert pay you ?

Christopher beautiful models and photos аs usual, personally I prefer your photos with more natural poses, like this "Minolta" one.

Taken at a local music festival, K1 + DA*300 ISO 12800 as I wanted to keep the shutter speed high, these musicians do a lot of jumping and jigging on stage!





Natalia Tena performing with Molotov Jukebox at the 2017 Alresford Music Festival. Pineapple Girl was a recent single for the band and fans often bring the said fruit to gigs!

Nice camera!

That is it, I just couldn't take my eyes of that Minolta camera

Patriot,
Indeed that second photo is better, the geology, the trees & the reflection, that is a beautiful scene. And oh my, you even take nice desert flower shots.
Best Regards, Bob

Bob I posted the same photo on fb with the same question. This is the answer I received:
"This one is better for a pc wallpaper, but sometimes you can't get everything in the previous photo gave you the high cliffs, the complete reflection,
and emphasizes the pool in the foreground."
So as you see the opinions are not unambiguous .

Last set on the mother/cub playing tigers... I'll have to check back and see how he's grown. He'll be full size in no time.

I think mom just laid down the law, but look at that left hook he's got cocked and ready and his back bristle, I tells ya, some kids got no respect...

Hey Otis..........why was Rupert calling you and your friends lazy?

Hubble, I'd let Otis answer that for you but he is busy taking a nap. From what I see, these squirrels spend most of their time "resting" and the other part eating.

This little girlie squirrel has been "resting" for two hours at the Sap Spout hoping for seismic eruption of that delicious sap.

You need to read it again FS......He didn't like your moon shots FOR FREE! I have to pay people to like them and protect your fragile ego.

Nice set Rupert... I think I know what's going on, since you were sick, Mrs Rupert took pity on you and cleaned your window for shootin' squirrels from your bed.
Keep on getting better and don't over do it!
