Hedgehog
I took this picture of a hedgehog in my backyard last July. I had seen it going under a raised wooden pathway so I got my little Olympus C-740 UltraZoom, turned the flash on and reached under the planks. I took several test shots to see where it was and ended up with this one.

Lovely detail in this lovely close up.

I like this one Andy. It has turned out really well considering it's taken with direct flash.

Direct flash on a compact = a tidy image well worth having.

Very nice.

Not sure about the grey stone/paving slab on the left, otherwise its a fine image that looks well for direct flash!

Hi everone. Many thanks for all your comments. Most of my best images to date have been taken with this little camera and I have been dissapointed with my efforts with my Canon 40D and various lenses. I will just have to persevere until I the hang of it! :toast: :toast:
