Very nice collection of photos. They make me want to take a trip back east.

What an introduction! Welcome to the forum, and thanks for all the lovely pictures.

Nice! All those places are not far from me...

Connecticut is such a fantastic place to find salamanders if you know where to look. Up where I live in the Northwest Corner they are still fairly common. Those are some fantastic pictures though, i've never seen a marbled or a tiger in the wild.

Nice pictures

You should enter the photo competion with those brilliant pictures.

We should get "future" and all go on an expedition.

Welcome to the forum, Future. Lovely photos. It looks like you switched cameras or lenses half way through?

Beautiful.

Same camera and lens. I just took more time with some of those shots. I am hopefully going out this saturday to photograph Spotted Sals at a spot in CT. Will post pics!
