Camel in the Wild

This Dromedary, or as I like to say, this open-toed ungulate, was running at full speed as I managed to grab this quick one before being trampled. I was just kidding about calling it an ungulate.... only a nerd would do that (looks nervously both ways).

Running at full speed? HDR? How is this possible? Do you have a camera that can take an HDR image with one exposure? I want one too...

fabmaven says:

I love your photos! I wrote a comment asking to be one of your contacts. I've changed my mind. I don't need to do that because I can go to your photostream anytime I wish to. You have plenty to do, and a growing number of admirers, so I'll just sort of follow your photos on my own, without becoming a contact. I'm not much of a photographer myself, but I enjoy good photos. My daughter is the photographer of the family. Thanks for bringing us the world! I also love the pictures of you and your family......

Jonathan Palfrey says:

"this was a one-shot HDR"

OK, I think that's what I call a pseudo-HDR, because it doesn't really have High Dynamic Range. It has Medium Dynamic Range. MDR, anyone?

This one's come out well, though.
