Shot in Mom's backyard with a 300D and the 55-200 zoom. PaintShop Pro X' "Smart Photo Fix" did the CC, since I don't know what the heck I'm doing.

More vacation snapshots here: http://www.genjerdan.com/private/Vacation2006 (And they mostly ARE snapshots. Ain't no photographer, me.)

Yeah...but it wouldn't have mattered all that much. We were just going around to different places to see stuff. I think we spent all of 100 dollars in Caesar's....and that was on slots. :)
 
Is that a chipmunk ... don't know that I've ever seen a chipmunk in person ... lots of squirrels but no Alvin, Simon, or Theodore.
 
Yeppers. Chipmunk. My wife had never seen one, either.

Well...never even heard of one, dispite Chip n Dale cartoons. They thought they were squirrels. (No grey squirrels in Romania, just the red ones, so I guess it wasn't unreasonable.)

Anyway, that's him, cheeks full of sunflower seeds. He'd zip over under the bird-feeder, stuff his face, then zip back under the house to either eat them or store them...don't know which...but he kept it up for over an hour. :)
 
Yeah...but I didn't do anything. I just pointed the camera at it and click, camera on full auto.

Like the one of the pigeon overlooking NYC. I'm pressed up against the railing, trying to get a shot of Manhattan, and my wife says "Take a picture of the pigeon." I says "What pigeon?", back up a little and Oh. Click.

Let's call them fortuitous snapshots. :)
