Hello all. I have been looking back through one or two older pics and found a set of Lemur pics which I thought I would try in black and white. They were all taken couple of years ago using K7 + DA* 200 as I recall. Very endearing creatures!

I hope you like these. Any C&C welcome. There are a handful more on my Flickr stream. Personally I wish the Ring-tailed Lemur had had his tail somewhere more visible, as it is such a defining aspect of that species; but I am always impressed with the sharpness of the DA*200. I think these were taken with a pretty wide aperture.

Cheers

I like these - I don't think the tail issue spoils it in any way but take your point it would have been nice to include it if it had been possible
K10D, K5 plus plenty of clueless enthusiasm.
