NZ Xmas tree

f/4.0 and 1/800

OK - so this isn't of an animal - but I reckon it's cool just the same. Taken at Raglan walking back from town to the plane, on New Years Eve.

Arty attempts

Garbo enjoying the summer.
f/8 - 1/250

I like this one
f/8 - 1/500

f/10 - 1/400

Maraschino

f/5.6 - 1/160

I guess I have the patience to wait for a good still close up - but I find them easier to take (more success)...

Maraschino is such a good subject.

Woodhill Mini ODE

My first attempt to photograph at a show. Luckily this venue is just down the road (literally). Not the type of photo a rider wants to see... but I thought it was a great action freeze!

f/5 - 1/500

f/5.6 - 1/200

The back ground was not great and it was hard to position myself (not in the ring) so that the horse was not behind part of the jump.

f/7.1 - 1/500

My favourite one of the day (maybe because the horse was still!)

f/4.5 - 1/500

f6.3 - 1/500

Yellow flowers

f/8.0 - 1/200

I know - not an animal piccy either - but love this one. It was published in the Falco Builders newsletter (colour) in USA.

Taz and Tama

Setting 1/1600 - f4.5

Taz and Tama saying hello.

Tama

f/6.3 - 1/250

Tama is a cute little horse, growing up really quickly.

Rainbow

f/5.6 - 1/640

I just happened to have my camera in the car - and as I was leaving I saw this rainbow.
