Brilliant shots....Keep them coming

Thank you all for the nice comments.

A lot of my waterfall shots are pretty washed out because I did not get to a lot of them unit late morning or mid-day (there were other things I wanted to shot at sunrise and sunset). I only had a few days to get pictures before it started pouring rain out - that kind of ended things early for me this year. I do not mind rain... in fact, I kind of prefer a light rain or heavy overcast for the waterfalls, but this was to much.

Not the greatest foreground, but kind of a neat rainbow.

Wow, nice rainbow. It's weird how the colours are different in, out, and between the rainbows (i noticed on a shot I took a while ago, thought my camera was being weird).

Meanwhile, I went for a walk yesterday, and this girl was just behind a tree about 3m from the path (these are uncropped 300mm and 207mm, 7D shots).
I've never seen a wild roo this close up before, normally they just run away (she had a huge joey in her pouch so probably couldn't jump).
(Domesticated roos don't count, that one I rode to school every day wasn't exactly 'wild').

I never noticed that. The color layering on the outer rainbow is inversed of the inner bow.

Cool shot. That looks like a rather large hitch-hicker she has there in the pouch.

WOW!! I haven't looked at this thread in awhile ...beautiful landscape shots!!

I went "deer hunting" this morning and there were plenty of deer just begging for their photo to be taken!
