Won't someone please think of the possums!
I'm gonna diverge from the cute kids and animal photos here to post a couple of shots I really liked from a salsa dance competition I shot here in Toronto a month ago.
yaaaj, another great capture of Carlos.. all thanks to the mighty fine D40... Obviously i was rather drunk here and i pulled a little to much on the 'make happy shinny vivid picture slider'. I like the effect tho. It demonstrates that these low end consumer cams deliver very vivid pictures MUHAHAHA http://album.zoom.nl/public_images/4517/9dEqTg.jpg

Ted,
It appears to be a Indian Sarus Crane. As the name implies it is from India. Supposedly the largest of the Crane family at almost 6 feet tall.

Gary, you win! I was driving through the Wildlife Safari, an exotic animal refuge here in Oregon, when this guy (gal?) appeared outside the passenger side window, so I rolled down the window and grabbed this shot while driving. I had never seen anything like it.
I ended up asking one of the wildlife biologists that works on my research team what it was and he said the same thing. This one seems to have poked his beak into some plastic netting of some kind.
Kerry -- I certainly remember Charlie's Angels. We all know why it ran for as many seasons as it did.
Good use of some creative lighting with a nice sunset. Now, if your gals and the original Charlie's Angels cast actually used those stances to fire real guns then they might as well have been using a gun like this one.
do you mind if i post a picture of carlos everyday? Most of my D40 shots belong to my 'best nikon shots' So. Again a version where i pulled the 'make happy shiny vivid picture slider'.
Anyhoo i'm still impressed in the results i can get with the D40. Somehow i have the idea that it has a wider DR compared to my D70 or d2x. the white on carlos head s easier to capture with the D40... :worried: i have no idea...
Shot with ether my D200 or F100.
) is pleased with this capture.
