    Caught this little critter resting outside on my patio doors this morning. It was kinda cold so I guess he was a little sluggish and let me get pretty close:

    You call that "pretty close"? I'd say "in your face!". :smile:

    Excellent job.

    Amazing detail. Is #2 a crop of #1? If so, it certainly held up well.

    Thnaks for the comments. And yes, no.2 is 100% crop from no.1. The little bligther held still and I rested my lens on the glass from the door.

    Double glazzing?

    The second reflection was a hint.:smile: Nice shot, the sigma 105 renders amazing clarity.

    Yes, tis on double glazing. I toyed with editing out the second reflection and then thought "Nah!" :smile:

    Thanks to all for their kind words.
