Nikon D40x

This squirrel was extremely friendly. It got accustomed to being near humans, so many were taking photos of it.
How far away were you when you took this?
Well as far as I can discern, multiple handheld source images for HDR can only be done when the scene is well lit to begin with, plus I may bump up my ISO to a higher sensitivity and open my aperture fairly wide in order to get fast shutter speeds to help minimize camera shake/motion blur. I also activate both auto bracketing and burst mode at the same time as well. Even still I get plenty that still don't turn out due to motion.
Who's on first...

If you look closely, you can see "Who", "What", and "I Don't Know Who".

Do you want it well done, or...
Nikon D80 + 18-55 (D40 Kit)
Exposure: Aperture Priority
Shutter Speed: 1/4000
Aperture: f/5.6
Focal Length: 55mm
Flash: Off
ISO: 3200
A bit of an odd combination with the ISO and exposure, but when you're shooting in a dark restaurant and this happens 4 feet away you take what you can get!

Shot at Solstice celebration from behind the stage area. Unfortunately, not a great shot, but at least this one came out.
Part of a series of portraits about the youth in the UK.

Though saying that, the ones one the website have been crossed processed and lose some of the detail.

Great shot! I like the hand as the background. It definitely gives more contrast than the grass would have, and it looks as though you're releasing the lady bug.
Thanks. I kinda agree with the contrast, I just meant, shame it's MY (fat, chubby) hand in the background...
Not sure what caused it. There was a forest fire in that area and maybe it is the dust. Here is another pic taken on the same day ..... i.e yesterday.
I like your hand in the picture as well, it looks like a run way and the lady bird is coming in to land.
This is a sunset shot on the Juan Santamaria International Airport in San Jose Costa Rica... Edited with photoshop......
It gives a good effect, since you don't know whether the airplane is going or coming...
I would appreciate comments and feedback on this one
