Date Uploaded: Dec 3, 2006

 Accidentally left the camera on ISO 400, oops...oh well, another lesson learnt.

This is a dangerous road for wildlife but I couldn't believe the irony of finding this scene. I guess the signs aren't really helping...

:( Sepia tone in this shot helps the focus stay on the message of the photo. Nice handling of a subject like this.

The problem is the Kangaroo was in FRONT of the sign. I'm sure he'd never have been hit if he were just 6 feet down the road when he jumped out.
