    Hello All,

    What an excellent shot! i love the angle that you have caught it from. If this is in the wild, what a privialige, the only way i get to see these fascinating, often comical animals is on wildlife programmes on the tele!:thumbsup:

    Nice to see something other than the meerkat standing to attention looking cute pose.
    But the focus seems to be on what it's sitting on ?

    Thanks for the feedback. I agree that the focus is on the rock. It wasn't supposed to be :) I am new to the autofocus world. I used to shoot with an old Minolta X-700. I now have the Nikon D50 and I believe it is set to focus on the closet object. I need to change the focus mode.

    I also agree about the pose. Thanks again.
