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.

All shots taken with Nikkor 18-200mm VR --edit--(VR ROCKS by the way - all hand-held..)--/edit--

Thanks in advance for suggestions / feedback!

#1 (inspired by Kellie) Tiger shot.
ISO 500
200mm @ f/11
1/80 sec


#2 Silly me, didn't write down what kind of bird, but it is kewl.
ISO 200
170mm @ f/5.6 (wanted shorter DOF)
1/200 sec


#3 Gorilla (this was tough because of the bright overhead sun casting shadows and highlights)
ISO 200
200mm @ f/5.6
1/200 sec

K1W1:

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.
