Yep - Ipswich has a zoo
Albeit a very very small one
One of the resident dingos
and finally, a half decent shot of a southern hairy nosed wombat
YEAH!!

I'm not a dog fan but I do think you've done well with the first two shots. The third technically isn't as strong, but who cares I'm fond of wombats particullarly Hairy Nosed Wombats...
I used to read as a kid, Harry the Hairy Nosed Wombat, it was a family favourite.

G'day Narelle,
First dingo shot is divine. Brilliant pose and your subject has a real 'attitude' about him/her. Pic is very sharp and DOF spot-on.
Lurvely stuff...
Cheers

Thanks guys
I'm always really chuffed when a shot taken through chainwire turns out ok !!
Suzanne - really really small - we have some wallabies, kangas, 2 emus, a walk through aviary, 2 dingos and some baby animals - that's it .... but keeps me amused
Hugs all

great shots as usual........ but the colour on all shots is a little pale, as one could say, too thin, a lack of saturation and or contrast, I would guess

Rel, I looked at the other dingo thread also and whilst I dont mind that shot (except for the stick creeping over the dog), the first shot here is geat,
sharp where it counts, good pose from the dingo and good b/g
could perhaps do woth some saturation, but I dont mind this as is
well done
Steve

great shots rel ...
talking about wombats ... was following a mate one night [we were on trailbikes] and as we came around a corner my mate ran over a wombat ... nothing important was harmed [ the wombat didn't even break his stride and ambled on his merry way] but it took a couple of hours to haul the bike back up the bank on to the road and stitch my mates knee up with a needle and fishing line !!
