Beautiful image Edwin, but where's you son?


:biggrin: He was at school at that time. No serious. This is another hedgehog which I photographed in 2008.

Thanks,

Edwin

Just brilliant... great reflection and low angle. Just to be clear is this wild or captive?

Thanks all for your comments.

To be clear...this is a wild hedgehog. Lots of hedgehogs live in our garden. In autumn I feed them every day with peanuts and cat food. So absolutely wild but lured with food.

Another excellent hedgehog image. I wish we had these cuties here. The colors are awesome and the reflection is superb. I actually like the oranges in the images of your pet hedgehog better. But all are top notch.

Hello Mate

Ah congrats on the EP and just think your image is next to mine, you see you can't get away from me even though we are seperated by the North Sea.
