Sinan, very interesting. Looks sort of like a strangely colored banana slug. What is it?

That reminds me of the third photo in this post that I made a few years ago:

http://www.photoclubalpha.com/forum/vie ... 198#p17198

It was not taken with a tiny sensor camera so I won't post it in this thread. I think it was taken with my A700.

Its a slug.

I don't know its specific type though. There were literally hundreds of them where I shot the photo. This seemed a little more interesting to me since it was eating.

Here is another angle where more of it is visible:


I don't know what that white thing is, it might be a baby slug?

Hah, what tha he.. was my first thought when I saw that. Seems like you already guessed my reaction before hand!!

Might indeed be ababy slug, which makes this image something I haven't seen before.

Or maybe it is something useful in making a baby slug?

A few days ago in Shibuya, Tokyo I saw that someone had left their bicycle outside on the sidewalk and there were 2 little dogs in the basket. I was there for quite awhile, but the owner of the bike didn't come back. A few days ago I saw the same thing except it was a baby boy in a bicycle baby seat, but no mother around. This is Tokyo where these sorts of things are generally safe.

These 2 dogs were so patient, just waiting in the basket and watching people as they walked by on the sidewalk. The dog that is looking at me sure seemed curious. He kept looking at me even as I walked around. I hung around for several minutes. No barking at all and they made no attempts to get out of the basket. I think they have done this before.

The little boy (maybe about 1.5 years old) was just like these little dogs though. He was quiet and content just watching people pass by so probably he was accustomed to this.

A fabulous collection of tiny sensor pictures everybody

I am fascinated by what those robot women are for ?!

Don't play dumb. I think you know. The future is here! See this:

Just kidding. I have no idea what those Bimbo Robots were doing on the streets of Shinjuku. Maybe on the way to the Bimbo Palace?

From my archives. These are with Dimage A2 (any one remember those gems?) with Olympus TCON14B (3x converter).

Very nice, Sury!

In Asakusa, Tokyo.



Asukayama Park, Tokyo is on top of a hill. You can ride this up to the top.

No, the walkway you see is just for workmen. We walked up stairs and a path on another side of the hill to the park on the top and while up there we saw this as it approached. An older man and woman were in it, one in a wheelchair, and also a young couple with a baby carriage. Anyone can ride it though. My wife and I and 2 other people rode it down.

This was back a few months in Dingle boats go out and look for the "dolphin" so I took the X10 with me it was my son's birthday and a day out for him and his friend too

The boats get quite close which is how I got the rear end boat shot at times they touch lightly as they circle looking for the dolphin which I didn't manage to capture. Note the Canon DSLR the guy is holding

Always fun to have a boat trip, whether you see anything or not

Looks like a good time.

Barry, thanks for posting. Looks good. It reminds me about years ago when I lived in California and went out on whale watching boats a few times from Monterey.
