    I like them both. Nice rich colors and good use of DOF. Interesting creatures to be sure. Be sure and post in the Nature and Wildlife thread. I am sure it would create some interest there too.

    Actually, I don't so much mind all the extra. Better than bars from the cage at the zoo.

    Well it would certainly make for great humourous visual impact and definitely grab everyone's attention.

    ...But then a green jacket would not go with the black eye or the black fur. Perhaps you don't see in colour after all. ( )
