 this kangaroo had been standing around with a bunch of his friends this morning while i took photographs of them ... he'd moved away from the others, and this is him turning to take off.
i'm quite close to our house near the washing line using tamron at 200mm zoom ... its a very poor quality image because i'd set the iso to 800 due to the poor light, so i'd be ready to catch them if they started moving ..

this is them watching me just before the kangaroo turning ..

it was taken at 1/25sec .. 100 iso ..

this is one of them going under the fence ..

It's so weird y'all have kangaroos just hanging out in your backyard. The ones in my backyard are at the zoo a block away.

This is really cool processing to rescue a poor quality shot. Now I'm going to have to go back through my garbage to see what can be saved....

I really like the softness of the background, it has a very fairyland feel to it.

This is a great rescue if you had such poor quality ! To have kangaroos in your backyard is unbelievable- we only have deer & bunnies !

This has to be my fav of the three - totally wild gesture (do they have gestures?) and look on the face. Really awesome. The processing goes perfectly with this photo.
