a strange child-like object that found its way into my back garden....
awwwww! what a cutie!
:D he's 2, and he's at the most amazing point in his life - from now on he'll be rubbish :p
lol what was he 'helping' with?
he wasnt, he found his bob the builder gear in his toy box in our house and insisted on putting them on and parading about the house :p he's a strange child :p
I think most 2 year olds are a little strange. I remember my cousins wee boy at that age. He is 7 now :surprised:
i haven't posted a pic here in aaaages, so here's 2 i took within the last couple of days.
this little chap brightens up my lunch break from revision. he lives in the hospital pond :)

that really is amazing :)
thanks for the kinda comments chaps :)
jackvdbuk - pm me your email, i'd be happy to make a desktop.
bobster - shot on a d70 with a sigma 10-20 in aperture priority at f4, front curtain flash on i-ttl about 3ft to my left. really like your shots, excellent framing on the first and the 'what you looking at punk?' expression on the dog is priceless.
it's a real pain to get it to work as there's a second or so delay if you do it using the d70 as the commander. i think i'll get one of the cheap £20 radio kits of ebay and have a play. although that'll mean manual flash which will be fun experimenting with. also trailing shutter would seem more sensible thinking about it!
thanks.

nice Hans, i'd be tempted to clone the petal out on the top left there..and bring it in for a more square crop..
