alhak i love both your captures.

I got of my but yesterday and while waiting for my youngest to finish her ballet class as we moved her to anew Ballet school in Wonderboom as she will be attending Wonderboom High scool which is very close where she will attend her ballet classes. She is doing ballet called RAD as she did BBO before. It seems that RAD is more accaptable then BBO Internationally. Any way these 2 captures comes at a cost. A security guard stoopd next to me while i walked around in Lombard str in Wonderboom telling me that the people is complaining of a persin walking with a camera taking pictures which i did of a beautiful post box and several dogs and rays and clouds. I told the fellow that i will bewalking to my vehicle and that i would not walk around again in that area. So my friends 2 uploads of animals. all of them dogs guarding thier houses and owners.

Well - nice shots but a strange story. You will be arrested because of taking photos - what a weird world. You must do some really nasty things to not be punished :)

Preap it is the second incident I have expertienced. Before i was accused of spying when i stopped nect to a aloe tree which was in flower taking pictures of birds enjoyinmg the juices of the aloe flower. An estate agent even stopped in front of me talleng me that they have my number plate and that the people are feeling uncomfortable with me taking pictures in the area that they reside. Anyway that wont stop me enjoying my hobbhy and talent i am using to take pictures. God Bless.

Praeb, I love your lizard and the monkye, sure you had a great time at the zoo.

Oh, how cute is your 'one and only' hamster-shot, Helle. Really cool and pinsharp :D
I was so curious what they will look like.

Ronoir, Jazz is GREAT! :D. I love the POV, it's so funny too.

Alhak, this is a lot of fun, you together with your big boss on adventure, and the macro-shot also looks great.

Hi Christo, not yet been arrested?
Such a clever dog-shots you've posted here.


I've made a lot of animals-captures, didn't know which one to choose.  
 But here a bunch of chickens taking a trip together.

Alhak - what awesome images! I love the dog on the kayak!!!!

 

Christo - lovely images!

Your story is so typical of this sick country of ours. You almost get arrested for taking photos, but rapest, who gang-raped a mentally handicapped minor, is out on R500 ($67) bail... Makes we want to leave....

Jacomina Two more outstanding captures.

Jacomani just staying out of jail. Feels like i am playing monopoly and just passing jail every time. Lol the Police even drove in once at our lapa gate as i was lying on my stomach taking pictures of Dragon Flies. At leat those police officers apologized when thye saw that i had a camera with me and even asked what i was photographing. Meisiekind a very state that our people are living at the moment. I believe it is because of crime that every one has such a feel of panic. I can say that the people patrolling that area is on the ball as they responded so quickly noticing me walking around with my camera, but then again they making me feel like a criminal.I do ask myself then am i free to walk in the streets with such things happening when i have my camera with me. Lol at least I got some descent shots for this challenge and it is forwards march searching for more without losing an arm or a leg. Seems that the e-bots also dissapeared for this challenge. Blessed day and week for each and every one. God Bless.


kgb224 ( ) posted Thu, 10 May 2012 at 7:03 PM

I must apaologize went through my mails in Gmail and did receive an e-bot of this challenge ending up on Jacomina's(Mies) chicken upload.Blessed day and week. God Bless.

Alhak I simply love that shot of you and your dog in the tiny boat :) Such fun. Good shot of his eye too :)

Christo! your captures of dogs behind bars are excellent, but I hope the police wont capture you :D

Jacomina, because I LOVE chickens, I also Love this shot of the four wonderful chickens. Not to mention the gorgeous turkey. WOW WHat a beautiful shot :-)

Great job, everybody!  I can't be here every day, but I'm enjoying your images very much.

Even though my participation here is sporadic due to travel, I've been thinking about you all and about the challenge!  We're at a nice campground right now that has an excellent internet connection, as well as ANIMALS!   So when I saw critters here, I remembered to take pictures.  :P  They're wild ... this isn't a farm or anything ... but there's a beautiful, big field right across from our campsite, and it attracts all manner of wild creatures.

Both beuatiful dogs and captures Clive. A new week and we must be on the lookout for more animals to capture on camera.

I think Bernies frog picture will make a beautiful painting.

God Bless.

Hi. I,m here for first time, and I must say that all posts are superb.

I captured this female squirrel last week. She was eating brazilians grapes and she wasn't scared  of me, so I could get close enough. Unfortunately I had to use ISO 1600, because the light was very low under the tree. Hope you like it.


kgb224 ( ) posted Mon, 14 May 2012 at 8:25 PM

Welcome to the challenge Netrot.

Adorable little creature Netrot.

I do not mind the ISO being so high. It is a wonderful capture and upload for this challenge.

God Bless.

Hi there.

What great shot's - I like to share some more too.

This are two Meerkats (Suricata suricatta) - also a resident of the local zoo in Leipzig. They look very lazy here because their brother is on the watchtower - you will see this in the second shot.

Have all a great week.


bernieloehn ( ) posted Tue, 15 May 2012 at 1:51 AM

Wonderful! I love Meerkats!

In German they are called "Erdmännchen" = lit. transl. "little earth men"!

Netot,  welcome :)  That is a cute little squirrel and well captured too.

Meisiekind ( ) posted Tue, 15 May 2012 at 10:03 AM

Welcome Netot! And what a cutie pie you brought with you! She is so adorable and you did a great job with the low light!

praep - Like Helle - I adore meerkats! They are so inteligent... Wonderful image of the pair!

Two more, for the second (or third?) week ...

 

There was a guy at the dock in Tokeland the other day who was dumping the bait from his crab pots at the end of the day.  The gulls were hovering, waiting for him to throw the dead fish into the water.  It was a perfect opportunity to try some "bird on the wing" shots!
