Photo of the Day ContestRat by Mart Smit
Monday, 12th March 2007
I am a student at a secondary school.
My favourite hobby is nature photography but I like also doing all kind of sports and working on my website www.martsmit.nl.
At a early age, I was already interested in nature. When I was about ten years old, I took all kind of pictures with my fathers equipment, but now I have my own.
In 2004 I won a price in the Argus Nature Photography competition in Belgium and that gave me the possibility to buy some excellent equipment.
The Canon EOS 20D and a Canon 100-400 5.6 L IS.
Most of my pictures are made in my neighbourhood, in our garden or around the farm of my grandparents.

March 12th, 2007 at 10:33 amWhat a nice shot. It almost looks like this little fellow was posing for you. You must be very patient to capture scenes of nature. Wishing you the best in your photographic ventures. You are well on your way. I think your little rat is much more attractive than those we have here in Rochester, NY.

I had a look at your website. I just want to say what a good job you have done in your photography. I too love wild life photography but I should be out there more.
Thanks for sharing.

July 17th, 2007 at 1:56 amI don’t like rats myself but you’ve managed to make this the most appealing rat photo I’ve seen. I suppose why I like this rat better than what I could have because it reminds of remy the rat from the new pixar film ‘Ratatouille’. I like the ground surrounding the rat, it makes it more appealing. Great photo. Well done!
