There is no more heartwarming rite of passage than the day a young kid's parents take him to the local pet shop and buy him his first otter.
Gunner the otter, on the other hand, looks pretty surprised to find out that he was for sale.

I almost always shoot with an early model Canon EOS SLR, which is many years into being obsolete but still works pretty well (I'd love to upgrade to a 7D or some such, but money's just too tight these days). This shot was taken through a 300mm lens at fairly close range, which probably isn't the most appropriate one for this kind of shooting but with otters there often isn't enough time to swap your glass out (and besides, I was hoping the narrower depth of field would look interesting).
