Why do these creatures always have to bang at the glass?
Koala, Miami Metrozoo, Miami, FL
Finally... I got my new hard disk and have it all sorted out now (for a while at least) and was able to download the shots from last weekend to my computer. And what can I say. They pretty much suck. This could be because it's been almost a week since I took them and in my twisted mind they had to look better or I am just in a crappy over-worked and stressed mood or they are really all crap...
This is one of the few that I actually do like and that came out alright considering the circumstances of dirty glass and glare.
The Koala (Phascolarctos cinereus) is a thickset arboreal marsupial herbivore native to Australia, and the only extant representative of the family Phascolarctidae.
The Koala is found in coastal regions of eastern and southern Australia, from near Adelaide to the southern part of Cape York Peninsula. Populations also extend for considerable distances inland in regions with enough moisture to support suitable woodlands. The Koalas of South Australia were largely exterminated during the early part of the 20th century, but the state has since been repopulated with Victorian stock. The Koala is not found in Tasmania or Western Australia.

These days, it seems as this has been replaced with a need to remain disconnected. I know that we are supposed to live in a connected world, but with all the texting and tweeting and e-mailing, are we really making connections? Opinions on a post card to....
This young lady with her husband and daughter were working very hard on the beach in Kilkee! While the daughter was not too interested in getting rid of her Daddy the lady was working with great enthusiasm! I always felt that that was what would happen to me so I never volunteered:-)
because you're going to get soaked anyway :-) Unknown.

I think this message is almost more appropriate when you exit the park than on your way in! As we left the Magic Kingdom during our last night at the resort, I felt excited about all the great new things we experienced during the stay. From seeing New Fantasyland, riding the updated Test Track, and taking a lot of time for photography, we definitely created a lot of memories to reach back for.
Photographically, here is something new I have been able to try! While I've never even informally met anyone in the Disney Flickr Community, it has been really inspiring to follow the Photostreams of the veterans of this craft. One person I will give a shout-out to is Gregg Cooper who not only mainly shoots my favorite park, but does so with a style of HDR that is very subtle. While I'm still a long way off from his level of talent and expertise, here is an HDR image of my own that is mapped from 3 exposures (-2,0,+2) in hopefully the same spirit. I attempted to stay very true to the scene while leveraging the added range in light the bracket provided. Thanks so much for looking!

Seriously, everyone, they way you responded to my push photo was amazing. Sue thanks you all as well. :) She was very hesitant at first and under confident about how she would look but then I read her the comments and she was blown away. :)

One of my favorite quotes:
"Be soft. Do not let the world make you hard. Do not let the pain make you hate. Do not let the bitterness steal your sweetness. Take pride that even though the rest of the world may disagree, you still believe it to be a beautiful place."
I have so many stories for this picture. It originally was planned to be like a "See no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil" thing, but I see it as so much more than that now. I will let you think of your own story... I have millions.
Thank you Sarah for modeling... I really am nervous to show this because it's so much different than my normal. Karrah Kobus inspired me... she said, "i think you will quickly be forgotten if you arent continually making progress, pushing your own boundaries, and giving people new things to see." Copy and pasted that right off her formspring. :) thank you again for inspiring me so...
It just made me realize, even though I only have 24 hours to develop, take and edit a new concept, I have to be pushing or I'll never get to where I want to be.
I think I pushed it today.
