Shot these kangaroos one early misty morning while looking for subjects - they looked as surprises to see me as I was to see them.

Welcome to the DPS family Bigbo

What a wonderful photo. I love the three kangaroos standing in front of the trees on the right. Great capture, look forward to seeing more from you.

Great! I love the threesome on the right -- perhaps mom, dad and baby? -- and the way they're posing for you with 2 looking straight at the camera and the little one facing a different direction. Very fun!

That's the same vacant stare you get from roos at the side of the road whilst they are pondering whether to jump out in front of your motorcycle or not.

Still, nice shot through the mist.

Oh wow, this is fantastic. Love the misty bit and love the big guy there just looking right at you. Luckily they didnt come thumping over! Awesome shot, thanks for sharing.

That's a fabulous shot! Great color tone, great moment, composition and finally, it could be in the National Geographic portfolio! Thanks for sharing, Bigbo! Welcome to DPS family!
