    Great capture Tim. I like the "easy" colors also.

    Thanks for sharing.

    Interesting lighting indeed Tim. I'd prefer to see a lower angle, but likely impossible in a zoo

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    Is that a knee brace?rolleyes1.gif An old basketball injury...no doubt!rolleyes1.gif

    I like the shot. I think bigger would be better. The concentric ripple in the water could be more pronounced...adding to the shot...IMO.:D

    Nice one Tim! thumb.gif A little more room on the left would help the composition a bit.

    Yes very hard to get an angle that not everyone else is getting at the zoo's

    Wow, that is some excellent lighting. It's an amazing shot, with or without the tag.
