Portable Room With a View

Brush-tailed Rock Wallaby

D4s , Nikon 70-200 f2.8 @ f5.6 and f4 respectively, ISO 1000, abt. 1/500th. In both cases, the DOF was a little shallow.

Very pleasant separation of the kangaroos and their environment!

I remember those little rascals all too well. One night I was sleeping under the stars when we were loudly awakened by a group of wallabies attacking my plastic food box, somehow they managed to open it and were eating the cereal making load crunching noises. I tried to chase them off but they just grunted at me hahahaha, too funny.

Awesome images btw and thanks for bringing back some fine memories :)
Cheers,
Jan Anne

thanks all for looking in and for your comments.

A quick derivation from the Monty Python crew. "there're not big tough photographers - there're just big softies when it comes to cuddly furry creatures" - LOL.

JA - glad this brought back some pleasant/interesting memories. Also glad to see your encounter ended at the "grunt" stage and that you didn't get into a full blown boxing match with them.
