Some pics from Melbourne Zoo

Hi guys thought I would post a couple of pics from visiting Melbourne Zoo

I just love Gorillas

I dont think this came out to bad considering I was taking it about 4ft back from a chain link fence

I like this pic as they look like they are in love (cheesy I know

)

Two monkeys

Hansome boy unfortunatly couldn't get a pic of him away from the fence. Must of been feed time. still I put it in as I like the fact that he is framed

In the butterfly house...humidity was unreal

Got a few of the elephants so I only put two in

The good old ugly emu

Zebra

And last but not least a giraffe

I apologise if the quality is not very good as I saved them at a lower quality so I could upload them quicker otherwise it takes hours

There's some really great shots there. I especially like the snow leopard and the ostrich.

I'm guessing the 70-200 got another workout

How many pic's did you manage to take?

mmm I dont know at the Zoo probably about 30/40 not many in the sceme of things got a few of the elephants couple more of the monkeys and yes I love the 70-200

.....i'm hoping my 14-24 is not that far away once I put new wheels and tyres on the car..I will be saving for that so hoping a couple of months saving and we should be right

here is another one I like this one as she is looking directly at the camera but I put the other one in because i felt it had a bit more meaning behind it

I didn't get a chance to goto the airshow this weekend and try out the 300mm lens, so going to the Zoo in the next couple of weeks.

Did u see the new Snow Leopard cubs ?
