you don't have squirrels where you live?

Nope the closest thing we have are Possums http://www.nationalparks.nsw.gov.au/npws.n...h-tailed+possum.

BTW got myself a new lens Canon 17-40L love it just need some time to get some good shots with it.

Awesome possum! Possum's are cute. Not sure if I've ever seen one in real life.... no squirrels eh? Guess they're not good swimmers :p

lol... opossums are not that cute really...

kinda ugly IMO, and they seem mildly dumb :p We had one on a table on our back porch right by our back windows on the house, and we opened the blinds to see what the noise was, and it just stared at us baring its teeth...we tried taunting it to make it go away, but alas it just sat there until we went outside...never moved until we got close to it

Nice macros jwjw1 also like the Squirrel we don’t have them in Oz so its really interesting to me.

squirrels are devilish creatures. they are absolutely everywhere where i live. i cant think of a day where i saw less than 10-15 squirrels throughout the day.

Grados :D Enjoying them?

I have heard nothing but positive things about this brand.

They're great if you're an avid rock music listener. Excellent mids for quite a cheap price considering other 'phones. :)

haha. Squirrels are annoying and pesky. We were having our windows replaced and the contracter left for a few minutes but didnt cover up the hole where the window should be...so we got a squirrel inside the house..he ran into the basement and hid in the spare bedroom. It took forever to get it out.

lol thanks for the story goodcase :D

In OZ we had a snake in the bathroom once we had just had the house built and did not yet have floor coverings the snake was able to get through a gap between the cement pad and the wood floor my Mum was the one to find it when she went to the bathroom lol.

That lens has some amazing IQ.

Yes I love it a major upgrade from the kit lens and about twice the size and weight its great it also came with the hood included in the price so that was nice.

I?ve not had time to take any amazing pics with it yet but I did take a heap of test shots of the cows feeding the detail it captured was tones better you could see all the hair strands on the cows and eyelashes . . . . very sharp.

    • Google Gemini co-lead Noam Shazeer is leaving for OpenAI by Pradeep Viswanathan Noam Shazeer is best known as one of the co-authors of the 2017 “Attention Is All You Need” paper, which introduced the Transformer architecture that now powers most large language models. He also worked on several major Google AI projects, including LaMDA, before leaving the company in 2021 to co-found Character.AI. He also authored the Sparsely-gated Mixture of Experts (2016) paper, which is popular among the AI community. After falling behind OpenAI and Anthropic a couple of years ago, Google brought Shazeer back in 2024 as part of a major deal with Character.AI. Through this deal, along with Noam, several other researchers returned to Google DeepMind. More recently, he was a vice president of engineering at Google and a technical co-lead for Gemini. Today, Noam Shazeer announced on X that he is leaving Google and joining OpenAI. In his post, Shazeer said it was a difficult decision to move on, adding that he was proud of the Google team and what it had built together. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman welcomed the move with a post of his own, saying Shazeer was one of the people he had most wanted to work with since OpenAI’s early days. Google has made strong progress with Gemini over the past year, closing the gap with OpenAI in several areas. But losing Noam Shazeer is a major talent setback for them, especially after bringing him back less than two years ago by spending a fortune. For OpenAI, the hire adds one of the industry’s most experienced language model researchers to a team that is already pushing ahead with ChatGPT, Codex, and its next generation of frontier models.
