This was taken with a D3200 and 18-55mm lens triggered using an passive infrared sensor. 2 flashes. I didn't put much thought into setting it up, I just wanted to test out everything out. Saw a little trail coming from a brush pile and went from there. No bait or lure used except that its set on the edge of a vegetable garden. Comments and suggestions are appreciated.

Not a bad result for a camera trap set up Anders, the only suggestion I have would be to try for a less cluttered section of the trail - if that were possible.

Awww so cute. I rather like his habitat even if it is cluttered. Shows how he blends in.

I spend a lot of time with opossums, I find them very photogenic, I use a long lens and 3 or 4 flashguns, As said the setting could be nicer although is very realistic,I have a lot of images on my website under portfolio 1 Virginia Opossum which may help, Keep it up they make a great project
