Local Wildlife Close-ups
I guess the best way to introduce myself is to post some photos and a small intro here. I've been fascinated by wildlife my entire life. I've also always loved taking pictures - especially of nature, wildlife, my cats (poor things - I turn to them when I'm stuck indoors) and cars. I recently invested in a Canon Rebel XTi with the kit lens and a Sigma 70-300mm Macro Telephoto Lens. I like going to parks or trails to get photos of local wildlife.
Here are a few close-up shots taken with my Sigma 70-300mm F/4-5.6 DG Macro Telephoto lens.

Looking forward to posting more and seeing wonderful photos from this forum's members!

I still have to shoot some car photos with my new camera - gotta get my car cleaned first after all the pollen is gone! I love taking all kinds of angle shots and, when I was a fan, I used to love taking photos at NASCAR races (those days are over..). Those will pop up soon!
