Lots of new pics to share! I did finally get my new lens...still trying to get used to this thing. It is so heavy I am going to have to get a new tripod very soon....almost weighs 3 lbs!!

So here are some of my first shots with the new lens...they aren't terribly exciting but here ya go:






This was the only really neat shot but he/she was moving so fast I didn't get the best picture, plus he/she was pretty far away:


Some pics of the sky and a treetop:






Back to my tamron lens here are some more bug shots:


Luv this web:


This is the weirdest spider...the other side is black and white:


I found this guy dead in my house....he was huge!


Look at those eyes!


And of course some kitty shots:






Whoa, look at that tongue:


In these pics she looks like a huge kitty teddy bear:




Posing for me again...



Okay thats it everyone...enjoy!

That first puffy bird is adorable! So is your cat Spiders freak me out but those are some cool close ups. And that hawk is awesome, the tips of the feathers look great with the sky.

Spiders freak me out

Yeah that spider did freak me out ... I thought it was playing dead and poked at it from a distance quite a number of times before moving it. LOL

Those photos are stunning the cat is just adorable, if you hear a little mew in the night its me coming and stealing your gorgeous cat LOL the spider pics are fascinating but i am rather squeemish when it comes to miniature wildlife you would have found me squeeling in a different room to it LOL The bird pics are fantastic also, birds fascinate me. and I also love the cloud pics, clouds come in so many shapes and sizes and brings back memories of lying on the grass as a child making shapes, animals people monsters out of the cloud shapes, and if I am honest I still do it in those idle moments LOL

Its a Nikon 80-200mm 2.8 for the bird shots.

LOL...do you need a tabby cat Carrie! I had fun taking pics of the clouds even though the mosquitoes wouldn't leave me alone. I was tripping all over myself staring out that lens and walking around trying to take pics of the sky. I like cloud watching too...its very relaxing.
