    I'm so vain

    I was about to open the rear door of my wagon at home today when this sight greeted me

    Not sure if it is female with youngster or a male hitching a ride

    I'm so vain

    They were still there one hour later and I then drove 5 kilometres whilst they held on tight until I parked up. IQ not so good on this one as I had left the camera on auto ISO and the shots at 1600.

    That insect is very vain since it appears he is looking in the mirror.

    Grahame, why did you leave it on ISO 1600? Because you did not check the buttons!

    Andre, I had used the camera the previous evening to take some high ISO shots to do some experimentation with noise removal software.

    Normally, I religiously re-set everything after each use to 'Aperture Priority', 'f6.3', 'base ISO' or Auto ISO with max of 800', 'Auto WB', 'VR On', 'Auto Focus' to give me a camera that I can quickly unpack and shoot with a reasonable chance of capturing most things.

    On this occasion, as you say I did not check the buttons and did not follow my rule ! For info the noise was not a great problem although I did put this through 'Neat Image' noise reduction software which I find quite good.
