    Re: Birds,bugs etc,around us!!

    Just spent a while going through your last couple of posts.
    I really like the photos of the leaves turning, but even though I thought it unlikely, your insect photos just get better and better!
    Enjoy the holiday

    Really great images, Albert! Independently of the context, they are all beautiful and some could be easily classified as wonderful!

    Felicitaciones, Amigo.

    Re: Birds,bugs etc,around us!!

    During the Miami holidays I used the two little (exactly alike) cameras I was bringing for my son and Emilia my eldest grandaughter!!Olympus SP 565 UZ which were surprizingly good!!Nice from macro to 20x zoom!!Small,light and 10 mega pixel!!Not like the big and heavier(also very much heavier to the pockett) gear I usually use myself!!I think the pictures are very good quality!!If fails they are from the photographer!!(very easy to use too!!)These litlle lizards fascinate me!!Some performed a porno show for me too!!

















    Flowers tomorrow or monday!!
    Regards:Albert

    Lizards are brilliant! They look like some kind of Anole.

    Re: Birds,bugs etc,around us!!

    Thanks Thomas!!Every year I go to Miami Beach,same hotel,I enjoy looking at those little lizards climbing on the poolside palm trees,or on the nearby walk to the sea!!I was also testing the macro capabilities of the little camers for son and grandaughter!!I think some are different species!!Quite tame!!
    Regards!!Albert
