Thanks, should mention the artic fox is really tiny smaller than a house cat. The raccoons were my highlight as I'd never seen them running around wild. Missed all the skunks thank goodness.

[Adαm]

Aw yeah it does look pretty tiny

We have badgers here instead of raccoons and I've seen plenty, I'd love to see a raccoon though.

Nice photos D! Most intriguing would have to be the Beluga, as I never even knew they existed.

And was so gonna say that snake reminds me of the wallpaper from Interfacelift lol

I never knew Belugas existed either lol now we're educated , I took lots and lots of photos of them trying to catch the one I wanted including the info on them so I could remember.

Only one I got with the 2 parents and baby

As for that snake I've a feeling thats where they took the photo, I'll look for it late and see. Oddly enough I have the wallpaper one on my lappy.

[Payday]

neat!.. cool shots.. i really liked the viper.. though it creeps me out.. but still looks very lively..

The city at night reminds me Max Payne Nice job!
About the animal shots - the colors look dull... But well i suppose that they are very original shots the way they came out of the camera

it was overcast that day so the colors I see on my PC are what I saw, I'm not into editing photo's much as I like the natural how you see look unless one or two are a little off then I'll fix and even then just a tad lol but yes these are straight off the camera apart from cropping. Guess I'm old fashioned that way but I can't stand HDR/altered/manipulated pics I feel they're the most terrible way to show a photo that doesn't really exist to the human eye lol........hope you get what I mean.

[xXx-Treme]

Yes I get your point, Donna
That is the most common discussion if digital photos should be manipulated in photoshop and if yes then where goes the border between a photo and digital manipulation? I myself support the point where colors are allowed to be edited (levels, curves, color balance). And there is onw thing about HDR, the dynamic range of camera doesn't support the dynamic range the human eye, so sometimes to make a photo that eye sees i hdr the only way.

Wow, that snake is amazing but also rest of photos are very good

[Frauenhandys]

Love it! What camera are u using?

[blush.logo.ink]

the photos are cool- they all come down with the same idea- reuniting with nature. and that i think is the essence of photography in this case
