Mumma Meo! I was entranced yesterday by our beautiful five month old snow leopard cubs and their mother, Meo, pictured here.
I am still learning to properly use my new Olympus E520 DSLR, but this is one of my favourite photos of Meo
It is not always easy nor indeed possible to eliminate the cage wire from the photos, but this time, Meo came quite close to the perfect position!
Meo and her cubs were quite slow to come into their yard, preferring to stay in their night den. Eventually her cubs wandered to the extreme right hand side of the enclosure, and peering over the side fence, into the next yard - that of their father Leon!
The cubs were trying to see Daddy.
Meo was keeping a close-eye on them all, and at one stage sprinted over to the side-fence, perhaps as a warning for Leon to keep his distance.
In any event, there are secure fences between them, so the cubs are very safe.
Just as well, as on the OTHER side, there is an adult Persian Leopard, and it often climbs up the fence to look straight at the cubs - no doubt seeing them as tasty snacks - though it would have to face a VERY angry Meo first!
The female cub is called Tashi and the male cub is called Gobi.
Tashi is the Tibetan word for lucky, while Gobi is the name of a large national park in southern Mongolia where the snow leopards are found in the wild.
Tashi and Gobi are the first snow leopards born at RMZ in 20 years, so they are extremely loved and cherished, and will be a source of delight for RMZ staff and visitors for years to come.
The cubs are utterly adorable and gorgeous.
Their mother Meo is a very relaxed mother, and is doing well.
Only a week ago, the cubs were weaned off Meo's milk, and now just eat meat.
The cubs were born Dec 7 2008 to first-time Mum Meo and Father Leon.
Meo is 6yo, and came to RMZ in June 2003 from her birthplace at Stuttgart Zoo, Germany, and Leon was born at Taronga Zoo in October 2001 and came to RMZ in October 2007.

A shot on the front lawn of the Mumma Farm within the grounds of the Antietam National Battlefield in Sharpsburg, Maryland. The Civil War battle at Antietam was the scene of the bloodiest one day battle in American history.
This was my first outing with the Zero Image 45 Deluxe 75mm 4x5 wooden pinhole camera. For a lensless camera in 18 mph winds that we were having that day, I'm very impressed with the sharp rendering of the pinhole.

Samuel and Elizabeth (Miller) Mumma lived here with their 10 children, Samuel having inherited it from his father in 1850. It was Samuel who had given some of his land on which to build the Dunker Church.
As the armies began to move into place around Sharpsburg the Mummas were told they should leave. They gathered clothing and packed the family silver in a basket, but left everything behind as artillery fire broke out overhead. The parents and younger children traveled in a two horse cart while the older children walked, escaping to Manor Church, about four miles to the north. It was good that they did. Their home became the site of some of the earliest fighting in the battle, and their buildings the only buildings on the battlefield purposely destroyed in the fighting. The house, barn, and two outbuildings were burned by withdrawing North Carolina troops to keep them from sheltering Union sharpshooters.
The Mummas returned to the loss of everything they owned, which they estimated as worth around eight to ten thousand dollars. Over the winter they lived on the Sherrick farm near the Burnside Bridge, and rebuilt in 1863. The current house was rebuilt on the original foundation. After the war the Federal government refused compensation for the Mummas’ loss because the damage was caused by Confederates, and compensation was only paid for damage caused by Federal troops.
I told Emma that we had to get some of her and her gorgeous daughter together, otherwise she will regret it. She didn't believe me at the last session, but finally let me take control this session!
I got to photograph my good friends little girl Gabriella again today. She is now 4 months!! It was gorgeous seeing her again!! This little girls life will be well documented!
Second client session in studio with OCF, am loving it so much, the pictures are a breeze to edit!

So last night (xmas eve) I got a phone call from my mum to tell me she was in the hospital, she slipped on the wet tiles and had broken her hip.
So this morning we drove 4 hours back to home. I just couldn't leave her in the hospital all by herself for Chrsitmas Day.
When I went and visited I noticed people that didn't have any visitors...
This flame is for those who cannot spend this day with their loved ones, for one way or another.

At the time of the Civil War's Battle of Antietam, the Mumma family had owned and successfully operated a farm near Sharpsburg for more than a quarter of a century. Two days before the Battle of Antietam, Samuel and Elizabeth Mumma and their 13 children evacuated their home. When they returned on September 19, they found only the smoking remains of their house, barn and outbuildings. They later learned that during the early stage of the battle, Confederates positioned in the vicinity were ordered to set the Mumma house on fire in order to prevent Union soldiers from utilizing it as a sharpshooter position. This was the only deliberate destruction of civilian property during the battle. Though they filed a claim with the federal government to be reimbursed for the damage, their claim was denied, as the damages were caused by Confederate, not Union, troops. The year after the battle, the Mummas rebuilt their farm, which still stands today.
