Wow. Great shots

didn'teven know this was growing in our garden....must pay more attention

I like to visit the local wildlife park to practice and inprove my limited experience in photography.
I find I am never short of willing participants

Could someone please tell me if it is possible to remove the faint wire in the background and how to go about it.
I really like this photo but I think it could be so much better if the backgound had a different texture.
thank you in advance

thank you everyone for the kind words,
truth be know I think the shot on the green cheek is more beginners luck than anything else.I must have taken over 100 shots in all different settings, but I do like that one.

Hello everyone,my name is Tony and I live in Hobart, Tasmania
I am new to photography and a friend recommended this site and forum as the place to be in order to get some good feed back.
I have a Sony A55 and I am loving the learning process of getting to know this camera and what it is able to do.
