Love the Snow Leopard. You must have been lucky. Were these from Sydney zoo? They normally hide up on a rockey ledge.
Jamie,
What WB setting were you using for these? They seem to be very cool, and perhaps the WB needs some nudging. g.

Cows - Lucky.......not really it was staring me out for a good 5 minutes, started to freak me out a bit.
![]() Gary - WB was, and is always in auto. Im yet to play around with this but will be sure to give it a go in the near future. Any tips on what way i could have nudged it to improve these pictures? Thanks for the comments so far people, look forward to more. Jamie

Jamie,
The problem with auto WB (in many cameras) is that it bases itself upon the "image" that the camera is "seeing" as you make your image, rather than upon the light source in use. Thus, if your subject contains a predominant colour, your wb, abd often your exposure, can be upset by that predominant colour. Take a few moments and look at the various wb settings the camera offers you; one should be suitable for the light that subject is being illuminated with. Set the wb to that and reshoot, and see how it looks. And shoot in raw too. Then , using NCE (presuming Nikon), you can alter the wb used and see the differences that a different in-camera stting may have made for you. Enjoy. g.
