Pittsburgh Zoo, at closing time. I was happy.

I'm getting this one printed at 16x24.

    Beautiful... I agree, the 1st one is thumb.gif. Definitely want to get to India some day and see one of these in the wild.

    Thanks. Yes, some day I would love to travel and shoot many of these animal in their natural habitats. I just hope I have the chance before greed forces them into extinction. My dream is to photograph an elephant family and a gorilla family in the wild.

    Thanks guys.

    The first is the 300 L 4.0 IS. I was actually toying with dumping this lens since I haven't used it much, but I think I might hang on to it.

    The other two are with the 70-200 L 2.8 IS.

    Thanks Ben. I am getting a poster of that first one for myself and I'll frame an 8x12 and hang it for sale of the second one.

    Tigers make great subjects, and you captured them perfectly. Great exposure and composition. thumb.gif

    That first shot is really nice. It shows that slinky/stealthy tiger look.

    Nice job on the title too :D

    Really good shots. They all make it into "wallhanger" status. thumb.gif

    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!"
