    Otter's in the sun

    Wetlands were very active today...besides the normal crittesr I run into, the Otters posed well! They love to roll in the dirt and then lay out in the sun. I was able to get with in 15 feet of these guys!!

    All very nice, but the last two are my favorites. Love the tilted angle, creative use of DOF and the very simple composition in #4.

    Just the lighting is a little on the harsh side.

    Awesome series. You were certainly in the right place at the right time. My fave is the 3rd.

    Wonderful...true love before our very eyes

    I like both #3 and #4 a lot, other than that I'll go along with everything Alex says...

    Have a great Christmas, Eric!

    What a treat that must have been to be so close to such animated creatures!
