"You're blocking my way"

Post by Particle_Man »

Was going to bed last night, and this little fellow decided to eye me out from the sink.

Naturally, I had to return the favour.

DOF gets tough at these ratios, so great selective focus. Yep, usually flies or spiders in our sink and hopefully.........nothing :D :D :cry:

All the best and I like the perspective on this.

Thank you guys for all your warming comments!

Thinking of upgrading already to a dSLR and go beyond reason there :)

Especially when the Dynax 5D from Minolta is around the corner...I wish I had waited a bit longer before I got my A200.

there is always something better and greater around the corner. I have my D60 (DSLR) and satisfied enough with it that I did not upgrade. I spend my money now on the latest and greatest lenses :lol:

Of course there is the added cost of lenses, but there's only so much I can do with my compact.

tbh, it's very limiting with a mere 200mm equivalent...and getting tele converters for it...well...I'd rather go back to SLR country, where I grew up :)
