Wallaby Mum and Joey

My friend has several of these gorgeous creatures visit his home every evening. This is the first time we've spotted the newest member of the mob. Late afternoon, tricky light conditions, didn't want to use fill flash 'cos the wallabies are very skittish. It took almost an hour for them to get close enought to me for these shots. Comments appreciated.

They are great Manta, I particularly like number 2, the expression on the joey is sensational.

#2 is brilliant. Also like the sig on the pic. Is this a font or a scan?

Thanks for the comments troops.

Stubbsy - the signature was done on a Wacom tablet and then saved as a brush. I previously had one using a pretty standard font but decided to go for something more personal when I got my graphics tablet - much easier to do with a pen as opposed to a mouse. I suppose a scan would work as well but I haven't tried that.

To create the brush - see Matt K's brilliant tutorial <a href="http://forum.d70users.com/viewtopic.php?p=29114">here</a>.
