One of the best I've taken so far (I think) - Ostrich from the inside :-) Hi guys and gals,
this is one of the rare pics which I consider close to what I want in
almost every respect - the light, the focus, and of course the sweetest
of all birdies absolutely willing to please me and have his photo taken
:-) This should be a perfect wallpaper for you, or, even better, smuggle
it onto your boss' PC and have the phone ready to call for an ambulance
as soon as he boots up his machine :-) Taken in Kruezen Animal Park,
near to where I live, in April 2000 (I think) with Konica Centuria 400
in a Canon EOS 50 with Canon 100-300 at 300 mm. Distance for the shot
was about 8 feet, so I didn't have to call for a vet to get my camera
out of that sweetheart :-)
Greetings from Germany -
Ralf
