Here is my three year old baby JCP Jynx

She is just adorable, though I miss her hatching colors... she was dark black and brown hehe.

Not quite on topic, but my daughter at Zion N.P. this past November, the expression she seems to have (hard to see) fits the setting

I was actually trying to get an underside shot of the mature male's palps, but I still like several things about this one.



A Brown bear from Brookfield Zoo on a hot day.


This one of the only photos I've never cropped, just resized. Taken in Germany, the first night I was there.


These are a few of the shots in my gallery, which is in my sig. I had a hard drive failure earlier this year, hopefully I will be able to recover a great deal of photos that didn't make to back up in time.

This is the one I'm most proud of. Took me 6 tries too. Oh, that's a female Parson's.

6 tries?! That's impressive. That seems like a near impossible shot to get!!! :clap:
Thanks. The strike from a Parson's is, at first, quite fast, but there's a very brief pause after the tongue hits prey. That female was extremely used to human contact. She was easy to get a strike out of too. She could eat a whole box of superworms if I allowed her too. She would literally follow you around the room. Here's the beauty, up close:

The male was different. A lot more shy and reluctant to come near you. but I snapped one of him sniping a grasshopper. That pic didn't come out as good, but shows good tongue length.

Great photos everyone. I don't think this is the absolute best I've ever taken, but it is one of my favorites. I have one photo from this series hanging up framed and matted. She is much larger now and still my baby.
