Thanks, snaps really, Wildlife is definitely not my thang. I sometimes shoot (Photographically ;) ) animals when I'm bored but I don't really get much pleasure from it.

It's definitely not mine, either, hence the luck comment. Problem is, wildlife shots are not very marketable for $ pusposes, but I really do admire photographers that can do it well. The wildlife forum over at fredmiranda.com is simply amazing. Check it out if you get a chance.

Wow, you must be fast with your camera!

But these 3 are my favourite "Africa" ones.

Anyway, I wish I could say I took these photos (sorry about their file size :eek: ), but I was too busy swimming with these guys. ;) The snorkelling/kayaking guide took them. Also, I don't have the underwater casing, although I would have loved to have the Olympus waterproof camera, which can go 3 metres underwater. Would have been useful a few days ago, I think. :rolleyes: :(

The one w/ the lioness on her back, paws drawn to her belly is so adorable! My (domesticated) cats do that, too! :D

I know these aren't up to par w/ what you all have posted, but... Yeah. They're all coastal birds kept in an enclosure at the Monterey Bay Aquarium.



Those little buggers are fast, too! But they're tiny, such tiny tiny little birds.

Pardon my grain. The shot was made pre dawn, so I had to crank the ISO to get anything but a dark blur.

I forgot the guy's name, but if you look, you can find. Don't expect any desktops from any of these fellas, though - very protective of their work - and they should be. Just enjoy looking. :)

sooooo hard to get it while it's out of the water - about as close as I could get.

Love that eagle picture posted earlier.
