Oops… the ISO setting! July 10, 2009

I bumped up the ISO to take a few shots inside without flash… Then forgot to put it back down again… So these shots are a little grainy, but, still, I was excited to think my lens could “reach” them!
Eastern Cottontail Rabbit
American Bullfrog
Painted Turtle
Do you notice the black specks on the turtle photo? Those are mosquitoes. On Tuesday, we suddenly had a big hatch of some species of mosquito that is voraciously hungry for blood. I have not been bothered by mosquitoes all summer… until this week! It was comical to watch this turtle trying to swat the pesky buggers away! (And yes, despite practically bathing in insect repellent, I came away with more than a few bites myself!)
Amazing how close and clear you can get with the right lens. I wish I had bought a DSLR but the cost of lenses turned me off. I could have bought one at a time over time and then had something of quality in the end for years to come. Really nice photos!
Mosquitoes got me on both legs behind the knees. Ouch. Itches. Found some “Itch X” at Walmart which seems to work.
Nice photos. Looks like the bog over at Aullwood Farm.
Great shots, and they don’t look grainy at all to my eye (at least not at this size).
I love your photos and will be back to see more. Thanks for recording nature for all of us to see.
Very nice photos! We get cottontails in our yard from time to time and I finally got a nice photo of one recently.
