Hi Rhea,
das solltest Du, oder lass mich gewinnen.
I´m still not satisfied with the results of my endeavors.

Snaky · 08-11-2007, 05:57 AM

Udo... great picture that last one! Very nice contrast.

drache · 08-11-2007, 08:28 AM

somebody messed with the computer settings and I can't do Umlauts any more
I hate the ae oe ue thingies - they make words look ugly
so - in English
Udo - you'll definitely win over me
but you realize
die Konkurrenz hier ist beachtlich

zooplan · 08-11-2007, 08:43 AM

because everybody here likes to do his/her best I´ve spent some more hours with my camera today.
I´m trying to win the contest but not to win over you

drache · 08-11-2007, 11:03 AM

just placing myself on a skill level relative to others
- it's still a bit hit or miss for me, whereas there's quite a few people here who actually know what they're doing

My camera has a multiple shot option.
So its easier to catch the right moment, but it is harder to select the right pic at least.

My list is down to seven and I view a slide show again and again.

I however think that we are ALL in trouble this month!

Spectacular photo ZOOPLAN!

Thank you, Terry.
James cause a lot of the trouble we have to fight

He got a nice shot, well composed in colour and a hitting title. But you got a nice shot of a rare garter as well. I´ve never seen ´pallidulus alive

Here is another "second best" pic for all those in had to rejekt:

Thanks Udo: You spent 9 hours, and I spent 9 minutes, and that includes catching the snake, getting the camera, finding a rock, taking the photos and releasing the snake, and I thought that it took a long time.

I certainty admire your persistence, and hard work. I think it paid off!

zooplan · 08-12-2007, 01:36 AM

I hope so too, but...
I can´t disclaim that I´ve had a lot of fun
trying different tricks to make the snakes pose and not hide.
and as an additional gain, I have two more albums with nice pics.
