[richoman_3]

went out looking for these guys today near a spot close to me.
since its been raining the past 2 days and today was sun, i knew they would be out because there burrows would of been flooded,
and bloody hell was i right, saw about 70 of them in one hour !!!


here are the best pics i managed of a medium sized specimen

Nice pictures, definitely an improvement over your old P&S ones

Nice pictures, definitely an improvement over your old P&S ones

I think only a small part of the improvement in Richos images has to do with him getting a new camera; mostly to do with him learning not to just snap photos but to now take more considered interesting images...so the type of camera he uses won't make a huge difference.

Well done Richoman!
