thanks for the kind comments guys... :D    the speed was 1/4 Casper it seemed just right for a bit of rotor blur but still not too slow for an amateur like me...    also just noticed does the door look open in the last pic??    maby he was getting ready for a quick exit... :LOL

Some great close up shots. What size of lens were you using?

i was using a sigma 70-300mm F4-5.6 APO DG macro lens that i only got a couple of weeks back so I'm still getting used to the full range of its abilities...  heres a couple i took of the pups with the macro ... think they came out pretty well.....
