Challenge: Straight from the Camera (Advanced Editing IV*)
Camera: Canon EOS-20D
Lens: Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 USM Macro
Location: sandy area in my backyard
Date: Jul 2, 2006
Aperture: f4.0
ISO: 800
Shutter: 1/80sec
Date Uploaded: Jul 2, 2006

 A common toad burrowing into the sand and perhaps contemplating the state of the universe...taken with a macro lens lying prone on my wrists to keep the camera out of the sand...he was very patient with me...it was getting late, used an ISO 800 because camera was hand-held and I needed a relatively fast shutter speed.
