Thank you Zefira… much appreciated.

eeeeeeeeeeeeeek! Phillip this is an absolutely great shot. You should be sooooo proud of it. Great clarity. I’m impressed. What lens did you use? (in other words..how far away were you?)
Phillip Weyers replied
Have to agree with the quality comment… I used my wife’s little point and shoot Nikon at about 30cm away, full zoom (3x)... a nice piece of glass eh?
Pamela Phelps
Wonderful capture!
Phillip Weyers replied
Thanks as always Pamela… much appreciated.
Steve Sass
Great shot Phillip, although I dont think the technos will be happy to hear you used a ‘point and shoot’! Sometimes they dont do too badly hey?
Phillip Weyers replied
Thanks Steve… the ‘point and shoots’ may have their limitations but this one sure produces beautiful clarity.

Oh GOODNESS!!!! < slapping self on forehead with palm of hand > HOW do you get such amazing detail!!!!! This is glorious!!!! And I do hope you were using a nice long lens … if not … have you counted your fingers lately??

These guys are all bluff really… just a show to make you think twice about eating him… I used my wife’s little Nikon for this, it has a nice quality lens though only a 3x zoom.

OMG! What is in the world is this? One look at that snarling face would send anyone packing. Great capture!!!

They are ‘plucky’ critters these…Bearded Dragons, and lots of them around here. They certainly put on a good show, but will run away quickly if the bluff doesn’t work. Thanks Marjorie.
