Shot at the American Museum of Natural History in NY today. There was about a one inch gap at the corner of the glass enclosure and I was focusing through that which made the edges blur (in a nice way I hope). R9/DMR, 60 macro at 2.8, 1/125s, ISO 400 (with 1.3 firmware).

such captures are a challenge & this one was well worth the effort
I like the expression on that paleolithic critter

Charles -

See what happens when you forget to feed your pets? Mother warned you about that.

Excellent shot, and I agree that the glass does enhance the effect significantly.

BTW: If you visit for even one special exhibit per year a membership to the museum is a bargain. rRght now they have their live frogs exchibit, again. they will repeat it every two years, alternating with their lizards and snakes exhibit.

Arthur and Stuart, thank you for the comments.
Stuart - frogs is on my list of things to attend soon and I do have a membership. The nice thing about a membership to any museum is that I can pop in to see something and not feel like I have to spend the whole day there. Museum entry fees in NY are getting high.
