Ok - I am overdue, and also, since my laptop is on the blink, I might not be able to post for a few days. So I am posting a few...

I got to visit the zoo without any kids!!! Here are a few that I really liked.

Thanks in advance for suggestions / feedback!

That probably would have been a great candidate for HDR. Did you use a fill-flash?

No and if anybody wants to play with HDR on it they are welcome (I will send the .NEF file if they want)

Tcad,

My son just went to the zoo and that bird was on the brochure he brought home. I know it's African and if I can find it, I'll post the name.

She's searching for cats. :D
