• Baby rabbits in a hole in my back yard
  

  These cute little furry friends almost met the wrath of my lawn mower today. Good thing I weed whacked first, which I never do, because I wouldn't have spotted them otherwise. Check out the other pics and you will tell how small they really are!

• Botanical Gardens St. Louis
  

  Ever been to Botanical Gardens in St. Louis? If not, I highly recommend it. And while this photo doesn't actually highlight the beauty of Botanical Gardens, you can find out more info on their website at MoBot.org

• Entrances: South City St. Louis
  

  I've been collecting photos of entrances for quite awhile so I thought I'd unleash a few now. These were taken in South City St. Louis. A plate full of toasted ravioli for the first person who can name the street.

• Heed All Warnings
  

  This is a photo of a little birdie that wasn't too keen on reading and obeying the message plastered to the rung of this ladder. I took this photo and posted it so it may be a lesson to the wild, careless and/or disobedient.

• Benton Park Grunge in St. Louis
  

  Benton Park is a cool little historic neighborhood near downtown St. Louis. It's actually the first place I lived when I moved to St. Louis. I lived near Pestalozzi and McNair, close to Venice Cafe.

• Caps - Schlafly No. 15
  

  Time for another Caps entry. This time I'm keeping it local with my favorite brewery of all time: Schlafly. This No. 15 brew is the tool I use to get people in the door and it even got Sarah to start trying (and now liking) beer.

• Tower Grove Farmers' Market needs your support.
  

  Supporting the Tower Grove Farmers' Market is the smart thing to do. Why? Cause it's the right thing to do, AND you get a t-shirt. Beat that! It starts up again this season: Every Saturday from May 10 through October 25, 8:30am until 12:30pm.

• It's a doggy dog world. Another series of 10.
  

  Or even a dog-eat-dog world as it were. In either case my dog Maggie is constantly challenged with "where's the latest and greatest spot to sleep?"

• Soulard Farmers Market - 10 things
  

  This is a continuing series where I take one subject and in one short shoot produce 10 images for a series. Well here we go for round three.

• Juan Pablo & Spark aka Monkey
  

  Juan Pablo and his Boston Terrier Spark also known as Monkey. If you live in my area and haven't had your dog photographed by me and my lovely wife, you really should consider it. ;-)

• Harley and Boss
  

  Another quick photo of my shoot with Nick, Casey, Harley & Boss. Here is the first shot I posted.

• Say Cheese - Nick, Casey, Harley, Boss
  

  You had to be there in order to get the title of this photo. I brought a pocket full of treats to this shoot and I got snubbed. Nick & girlfriend Casey brought cheese!

• No No Nooooo!
  

  My Boxer Maggie never ceases to amaze me. This is what we came home to the other day.

Whoa, that's quite the lens. How far away from the cat were you? And what happened at the unnamed local camera shop? That's the real story...

A response to a comment posted by Hafiz (#):

Yeah, not a bad lens, I picked it up for around $120 or so, it's a 300mm so it can zoom in quite a bit. I think I was around 50 yards away.

The unnamed camera shop is none other than Creve Coeur Camera. I was going to flame that whole situation out on the blog but the owner called and got it sorted. I still won't shop there though, no way.

Hey, thats's a nice shot. I'm currently planning to add a 70-300mm lens to my equippment for my Canon 400D and came through that tamron-lens you mentioned above. As an alternative I'm thinking about a Canon 70-300m IS USM -lens (not the L-Series), which is indeed more expensive than that Tamron-lens. Do you have any experience with that Canon-lens compared to the Tamron?

Joe, I love your website and your photography! Your work is amazing! I especially like this picture which you took at the zoo. I wonder if this cat knows how really cool he is! Well, just for the record, he is a Real Cool Cat! And this is a Real Cool Picture.
