all of those pictures are excellent, my personal favorite seems to be the E. Red-spotted Newt photo... I think it's because of the coloring of the newt itself along with the background its in.
very beautiful, i can't wait to see more!

Aimee, thanks for the comments. The newt photo is one of my favorites too, and actually I had debated to put that one or another one (below) in my original post. In this second one, he had moved to a different area and I just used natural light and a long exposure time as opposed to flash. It's odd to see the color difference, but either way he was pretty bright.
I use a Panasonic DMC-FZ3 digital camera with various filters (close-up for macro, neutral density and polarizer for waterfall and landscape shots). I'm very impressed with the camera (12x zoom, can't beat that when dealing with wildlife), especially for it being fairly inexpensive.
The stuff I posted here only gives a little bit of an idea of what it's capable of doing. Check out my galleries
here if you'd like. I'm particularly happy with how my waterfall shots have been coming out lately!
