ZOO Dvur Kralove - PHOTOS + lens troubles?Hi pals!
Kiriban was caught and the winner will be featured soon

I also passed all your comments and compliments (on the last journal's photos) to my parents, they were very pleased and thanked you

so thanks!
This weekend I spent in mountain and I visited one of my favourite ZOOs, Dvur Kralove nad Labem. I was a bit disappointed that they moved cheetahs (I did not see them at all), because this ZOO was very good for taking photos of them. They also moved fennec foxes from very photographer friendly enclosure which allowed the foxes to enjoy some sun light into a nocturnal indoor pavilion which is very dark and you can watch the foxes only from above, so I am afraid I lost this place for fennec photos

I also did not manage to take good photos of baby tigers and baby leopard although I tried a lot. It seems that my lens refuses to focuse, which scares me

I admit I could take some 70 000 photos with it, but... do not die, 55-250 IS!

I can not be without photography!

Bitten by a squirrel + funny ZOO Vienna - PHOTOSHi

I used my a bit higher (but still pathetically low) self-confidence to meet another dA member - this time it was *Shadow-and-Flame-86, lovely young scientist from Scottland, where she studies marine mammals! It was just perfect, she is very nice person, we had fun (at least me

). I am really glad we met and could chat a lot about her work, ZOOs and animals in general

What was the biggest attraction? Giant pandas? Wolves?
No! Those were squirrels

ZOO Vienna is totally full of wild but tame squirrels. And by full I mean that they are everywhere in a forest part of the ZOO! People feed them with nuts, so they come VERY close to you, they even run to humans, following them and begging

I was ready for this and I prepared a sack of wallnuts for me and *Shadow-and-Flame-86 to have some fun. It was amazing

one squirrel bit me when she took a nut from my fingers - I was rude to hold it too tightly, I think XD other squirrel climbed me chest, other one my

News+ ZOO photos + KIRIBAN is cloooose UPDATEHi

Sorry for update, but it is time for Kiriban again - I annouce 899 999 this time

Catch my 899 999 pageviews and send me a printscreen as a proof via note to win a feature ;D
(no feature for porn or animal cruelty, thanks)
It is very close, so good luck

In case you noticed (I do not think so

), sorry for low activity in last days - I had too many things to do

I got back from Berlin, then we got prepared for a wedding!

then my parents went to Georgia (I can not say I am happy about it), then it was the wedding, then it was my sister's birthday and then I went to Nuremberg - I got back today

I also answered all 120 notes, sorry it took so long! I already have 16 new ones...
Oh, a wedding!

Nope, it was NOT my wedding ;D it was a wedding of my beloved and admired cousin - I love him so much! He is so smart, honest, responsible, caring, intelligent, likeable, hansome, loving, ambicious, educated, helpful person and I can continue with superlatives. I lo

Fantastic white wolves - PHOTOSHi!
Nobody caughed the kiriban?

Will, will, where are you?
I do not mean any guy (although Will Riker is kind of cute

), but my own will - I can not get into losing weight again, although I now have the perfect chance to continue! I hate my weak will so much, how comes that I can not kick myself to continue, especially when I see it IS possible? :/ nah, I am so angry at myself. Go, stupid Woxys! There are still 20 kilos of fat which wait to be removed.
Mhhhhhm, I really need to start, as even the current state makes me feel much happier than the state a year ago.
Sorry for talking about this issue a lot, it is not easy, although I have already managed to lose some 20 kilos. And now other 20 should go away! It is just hard, because yes, it is nice I lost so much, but I am still so terribly overweight

I have so many motivation clothes, but I obviously need a big kick to continue. GOOO, blonde, go

but thank you for your support, you are awesome.
Now so

Snow is here - wolves on snow - PHOTOSHi!
The first snow came - it was very thin layer, much less than 1cm, so it did not survive the night, but it still pleased me

It inspired me to post some photos of wolves on snow - those shots are quite old

Wohoo, this number of pageviews?

thanks people, it looks nice - I wonder if I can make it to 1 000 000 until the end of 2012!

it would be awesome

DD for some of you :)Hi!
At first, there is a new kiriban: catch my 955 555 pageviews and send me a printscreen via note as a proof to win a feature

No feature for animal cruelty or porn, thanks for understanding.
At second, no, I did not get any DD

(only one - bur many years ago buhhehehhehe

)
But I have suggested many deviations for DD and I was disappointed when I got no reply and those deviations have not been accepted

I think some of those artists created absolutely incredible work and they definitely deserve more attention.
Today, I will show you some of the deviations I have suggested (or plan to suggest) for DD, but which have not been noticed or accepted by admins, which made me really sad and disappointed. DA has some rules for featuring a deviation as a DD, it says that suggested artist should not have a DD yet, it should not be very famous artist and it should include some info about a subject in the descriptions. Those artists followed the rules, but their art has not

Is anybody here? + news + ZOO animals - PHOTOS.Hi!
Ok, ok, ok, I am almost scared - what happaned? It seems that this site is totally empty for last week!

I wonder what caused this: Sandy? Or do Americans have some Halloween holiday so they are not online? Or... is there some secret and slow Zombie attack?

Of course dA decided to use this time to announce free shipping

usually they do it before Christmas and I usually get pretty nice money from it. This time I got just few dolars, so I hope dA will repeat the action - just before X-mas as they did the last year. Because this site really seems to be empty now!

as a response to a free shipping, I released Free calendar for 2013 - I think I have never had so few faves, views and downloads on it. What a pity, what a bad time

I know about Sandy, it was covered by Czech media a lot

Poor people, I hope everything will be fixed as soon as possible. I did not know it affected so many people

You also know I asked you to vote for Allerlei's photo - thank you

Wonderful wolves + cute wolf pups - PHOTOSHi!
Oh, nobody caught the kiriban again?

Plans for next week:
1) to finally make a ZOO photography guide
2) as the school term started, I need to deal with my final thesis (and you know how MUCH I hate it)
3) to clean some data from computer
4) to lose 1 Kg
Special feature for my best friend *Allerlei: I am with you, pal

Relief, kiriban and ZOO Brno - brand new PHOTOSHi people!

So my parents finally got back from Georgia. I have to say that I feel a great relief! Of course I knew local people are civilized that it is a nice country with fantastic nature, but it was still the Caucasus region and I definitely did not trust its roads and planes... My parents loved the trip and today and tomorrow we are looking at the photos they and their friends have taken. Nice to have them home

I also announce the newest kiriban as you did not catch the previos one: 904 444!
Catch my 904 444 pageviews and send me a printscreen via note as a proof to win a feature

(no feature for porn or animal cruelty, thanks for understanding)
Huh, I made a BIG mistake.
(WARNING, A LITTLE SPOILER ALLERT IS FOLLOWING)
I read a part of Hunger games. I do not say it is a bad book - but I was shocked how bad I felt for that story! Among my friends, I am well-known for having no love for kids. But reading about deaths of all those children made me sick and although I stopped r

Beautiful and fuzzy: WOLVES - PHOTOSHi!

Here come some photos of arctic wolves

They are old, so the quality is lower - but I think it is a good thing to use stock photos

Very cute baby wild cats - PHOTOSHi,
I met my dear friend =amrodel and we visited ZOO Jihlava together - it was full of baby cats!

Caracals, manuls and snow leopards had babies, so it was amazing to watch them - just the weather was bad, cloudy and even rainy, so the light made the photography difficult

thanks for lovely meeting, Amrodel!

Here you can see some photos - I included also lovely Tamina the seal

for ~Lunchi, of course

Strange dA people + ZOO in autumn - PHOTOSHi!
I got all scared and hysterical that I waisted all sunny autumn days so I have no chance to take any wolf photos with colourful background this year. So when the sun made it to shine through the clowds today, I ran to the ZOO to take some shots. Well, the leaves are still on the branches and nicely golden, so I have some autumn shots in stock again

the foxes and wolves are fluffy again, but both of those species were sleepy - I had to wait a lot before wolves decided to move a bit. You might say it is a deal of photographers, but it is something unusual, local wolves tend to have only short moments without activity. Both alpha and beta female seem to be very tired and thin, but at least they seem to have some grown fur

I hope they will manage to survive the winter, but it is really a sad sight. Atila, on the other side, is fluffy white pillow as usual, and again his own pups made him feel very uneasy. He is so cute.
The title: yup, there are some great persons on this site

Back from Berlin - a bit of talking and ZOO PHOTOSHi people

Muhaha, I am back from Berlin - it was AWESOME trip!
Thank you all for journey advices - we finally decided to not buy a sticker, to park our cars as close to the center as possible and to get to the hotel by underground. We in fact had no clue where to park or where to even leave a highway, but it somehow happened that we accidentaly left the car on the best place, which was really right next to the beginning of "eko" zone and just next to the tube station of the line which got us directly to the hotel. Yay!
The first thing I saw after getting out of the underground area was... CHECKPOINT CHARLIE!

One of the things I REALLY wanted to see in my life

And even our hotel was on a street, which used to be divided by Berlin wall! The remains were still lying just few metres from the hotel! Just AWESOME, AWEEEEEESSSOOMMMEEEE!
It really meant a lot for me.
I wonder if YOU know about Berlin wall and so...?
I think I will write a report about it next time

:-( and ZOO animals - PHOTOSHello,
I hate that thesis SO much...

I feel like total idiot, I somehow can not write it. Why?!

It is my the last attempt to complete it, if I do not finish it properly, I totally lose my chance to get my second Master degree. Which would be pretty embarassing, because not only I already have all the credits I need, I even passed the graduation exams! After so much work, it would be stupid to end without the title just because of inability to write stupid 80 pages.
Also, I wish USA a lucky hand when it comes to voting! It might be interesting, I will definitely watch US elections

interesting material for a student of political science. I do not mind to share my opinion - I would vote for Obama. But I do not feel like advocating my opinion, I have no problem with those whose attitude is different

The first few photobooks have been already shipped!
P.S.: still exercising, still riding a bike (two days, then a pause), still eating 5x a day. I have problems with drinkin
