I had expected to reach the 100.000 views some day... I mean...statistically every deviant passes this point somewhere in time, but I blinked my eyes and all of a sudden there was this magic number....:omg:

And since you all are the ones that came by so often with all your kind and inspiring comments:
:thanks: :party: :boogie: :w00t: :dance: :donut: :beer:
It's nice to know my photos are liked and it's one more reason to go out and shóóót! :blowkiss:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

And here are some answers to questions that are asked frequently:


Do You Live in a Zoo?
Yes, I have my own beautiful & comfy cage next to the elephants.....
(to put it in another way: I'm just a visitor)


What gear do you use?
Canon 350D (best toy ever)
Canon 70-300 IS USM (high ups, deep downs)
100mm F2.8 Macro (broken right now and I miss it more than I could tell)

Where do you take all these pictures?
Wildlife: In a zoo.
Cats: Everywhere I can find them.
Insects, flowers, scenery: everywhere.

Are these cats yours?
I wish, unfortunately I have no cats right now.

How do you take all these pictures?
I click. Seriously......I know some ins & outs, but I'm a very intuitive photographer. No plans, no tripod, just my me & my cam and some nice models.

Why don't you sell prints?
First because I prefer to spend my time on photography rather than organising prints.
Secondly because many shots are taken in zoos and zoos require permission for 'commercial' use.


Can I use your photo(s) as a reference for my drawing/ painting/ sculpture...?
Of course, if you give me proper credits (link to original & my account), feel free to as a ref. whatever you want and please send me a note with the final result, I love to see it.
NB: Rule above is -of course- meant for use here on DA, or -eventually- other art communities like Flickr, NOT FOR COMMERCIAL USE.
If you want to make money out of work based on my photos you have to ask permission in a note.


Can I use your photo(s) for a manipulation?
No.

Can I use your photo(s) for a my own website/ myspace/ avatar etc....?
No.

I liked that FAQ. I have the same opinion about "how do youtake pictures" and "why don't you sell prints" although noone asked me the second question yet.

Sorry for noting you earlier about buying prints, I wasn't aware that you didn't sell them. ^^;

I didn't realize your photos could be used as references. That is fabulous! I'm always wanting better reference photos for various types of animals for my traditional work, but most people don't allow that to be done from their photos, and I respect that.

When I was in high school, I "stole" the use of a tiger's face from the cover page of a National Geographic, one of the best pen and ink works I've ever done. The teacher was fine with it, and =never= mentioned things like how that work was copyright protected, and that I should not do that sort of thing. Luckily I figured that out on my own without getting into trouble.

Thank you for taking such a huge library of wonderful and varied images!
