]]> Lismore photographer Andrew Sooby from Luminous Mudbrick, snapped this hot chilli and what’s left of another hot chilli. “What creature does this?” Sooby says. “They were both snipped from the same bush. We know  that there’s at least one currawong in the Lismore area which will eat all the chillis from the same bush, gulping them down whole….but whatever creature did this discerning little carve-up knew exactly what it was doing.”

This photograph was taken on a Fuji XE2; 90mm (equiv) prime lens; 1/500th at f.16; available sunlight light; ISO 400.

]]> Who’d be a wild-life snapper, says Andrew Sooby: “The green tree frogs were partying big-time  in the Lismore rain. I took around 60 shots, all of this frog. This is the only useable one. (I blame the gear. And the frog, which refused to puff out when I asked it to….). Three of us trying to talk round a coffee table outside had to lean forward and talk very loudly to get above the racket this single creature was making on a rock just next to us. You can imagine the din when they’re inside the drainpipes.”

Andrew Sooby used a Fuji XE2 with a 90mm lens at 1/80, f2.4 Flash. ISO 6400
