Having Fun with My New Camera Lens

We are lucky to have many fantastic photographers here in ActiveRain. When I saw this post by William I just had to share it with everyone. Who would even thing of a photo like this? Only someone who is extremely creative! Thanks, William and Happy New Year!

Original content by William Johnson

One of my all time favorite photos was of a little monkey that crawled up on a photographers camera in a rain forest in Central America. As he stretched out over the top of the large camera lens, the photographer captured him just as he bent into the hood looking into the front of the camera. While it was not my photo which is why I can't share it with you, I did a little recreation that sort of gives you the idea. 

This little fellow is one of a collection of several baby apes and chimpanzees that I have on a 10 ft Palm tree in my family room. Although they are stuffed animals hanging in that tree, they always make me smile. So I thought I would borrow one to recreate a semblance of one of my favorite  photos. 

As an animal lover, I would be very content if the rest of photography efforts was focused on animals. This new year hopefully will afford at least some opportunity to bring you some whale sightings, more animals from local and far away zoos, many wild birds found locally inland and coastal and of course the many communities and major events in and around San Diego.

It's important to stop and do some fun and quirky things now and again. Thanks for the re-blog as I missed the original...and it brought a smile!

Good Morning Barbara Jo, Thank you so much for this re-blog. When I was thinking how I could recreate some semblance of the photo, I started to laugh at how silly this might look. The more I thought about it the more I laughed. I am delighted that you enjoyed this as well. A good sense of humor can be a real asset this days.
