    Outstanding shots Daniel. clap.gif Congrats on taking the workshop. I think that such learning experiences are much more important for one's development than any gear expenditure. I would love to hear more about the workshop.

    Great shots Daniel.

    I agree with Harry that what you will learn at a good workshop is far more valuable to the quality of your images than any new hardware.

    I like the feet also, and the gorilla.

    I envy you that close proximity to your subjects.

    Some of my favorite shots are still ones I captured with a 10D.

    You have lovely color in the peacock.

    Wow, Daniel, I missed this thread....glad someone else found it! These shots are amazing! I'm with everyone else, the elephant's feet is fantastic. Your gallery is powerful, and I just don't think "zoo" when I view your images. thumb.gif
