fotografr Posted August 30, 2013 Share #1  Posted August 30, 2013 Advertisement (gone after registration) I'll be the first to admit this isn't a great wildlife photo. The only things remarkable about it are that it was taken through a screen and window into my back yard using the X Vario, and the quality was still very good. It's also interesting in that raccoons are nocturnal creatures, and this was taken shortly after noon. I always wonder how these creatures--this one as big as a medium size dog--manage to survive in the middle of a large city. Welcome, dear visitor!

pauledell Posted August 30, 2013 Share #2 Â Posted August 30, 2013 Brent, Â A fine shot under the circumstances. Perhaps with the urban areas spreading out more, the wildlife are running out of room to live and are actually moving in for food. I live in addition on the fringe of the rural area and have seen fox and even a coyote at night on our street. Â Paul Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then perhaps we wouldn't have so many rabbits eating our garden. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karl G Posted August 31, 2013 Share #4 Â Posted August 31, 2013 Bryant, as you say, pretty decent with the "filters" in the way. I don't see how the autofocus could work or certainly wouldn't be expecting it to work on a Nikon pro body let alone a Leica X body. Around here a raccoon seen during the day is probably diseased.

Â Â Karl, very true about diseased raccoons. Also, I have a friend that has a raccoon problem but it's because his neighbor likes to feed them. That makes them bolder and comfortable around people. Not a good thing. Â Good photo I must say. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iduna Posted September 2, 2013 Share #6 Â Posted September 2, 2013 Brent, s a great sot. It is a very clear shot with out any deficiences which is remarkable because windows of cars are problematic with BW and blurr even or contortions. Very interesting.

Northwest Wanderer Posted September 2, 2013 Share #7 Â Posted September 2, 2013 Advertisement (gone after registration) Brent, Â Does the X Vario have a setting for shooting thru glass and if so did you use it? The D-Lux6 and V-Lux4 have such a setting. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
