Wow, Gary, this is one of the best groups of Zoo shots I have ever seen on Dgrin. You made them all look like portraits! Awesome job! I especially like the lion full profile. What is the reflection I am seeing in the first orangatan's eyes? Is it the same plant that is posted next to it? An incredible job...can't say which I like best!
Yes, these are beautiful! Almost as if you had directed some of them to pose. You were able to capture a real personality for each one. Very impressive!!

Thanks Elaine-
Instead of hitting as many different exhibits as possible ... I hung around an exhibit until I got something interesting. Photography, Zoos and kids just don't mix well.
He/She looks sad, good shot, it has a lot of feel to it.
Had a quick look at your other shots, looks like you had a great day at the Zoo ... Skippy

Thanks Skippy ... yep ... it was fun and challanging. It was an LAShooters' event ... so there were a few of us sharing the fun, our photo expertise and equipment amongst ourselves.
