Will Look Cute For Food

Uploaded: April 09, 2008

Description

F4.5, 1/400, 150mm
This little fellow was looking for food around the picnic areas, and he was also raiding the garbage cans. I was so excited to be able to get this close to a raccoon in the wild! In fact, once he came so close towards me that he was out of focus, and I had to get up from my squatting position to back up a few steps. That spooked him a little, and he retreated only to return again a few minutes later.

Exif: F Number: 4.5, Exposure Bias Value: 0.30, ExposureTime: 1/400 seconds, Flash: reserved, ISO: 160, White balance: Manual white balance, FocalLength: 150.00 mm, Model: Olympus E-500
