happened to have my camera on me whilst driving around at work and took this opportunistic shot from the car of a Red Kangaroo family munching on some grass beside the road. I didn't occur to me at the time but on queue the whole family stood up and posed for the picture, even the joey in mumma's pouch

Great photo...i love the colours of the Australian bush...i guess we need to carry the camera with us at all times so we dont miss shots like this..nice work and a cute family

Thanks for your comments. I work in western Queensland on the fringe of the real 'outback' I guess you could say. We get a lot of great native wildlife out here like kangaroo's, emu's, brolga's (took a snap of two the other day but was not a good pic), snakes, dingo's etc etc
I plan to upgrade to a DSLR for the first time shortly and am weighing up whether to go with the Canon EOS 450 or the Nikon D60. I love landscape photography and a fellow on here had some good points about Nikon being superior to Canon for wide shots and the choice of lenses etc. I am just a beginner so got lost in all the tech talk a bit.
So hopefully shortly I will get better with my shots and post you more of my part of the world.
