Taronga Zoo

Getting through some more old photos.. these aren't that old, taken a few weeks ago at Taronga Zoo.

It's been ages since i've done any photography, and these are really just happy snaps but a few of them turned out ok.

Taken with the 350D + 75-300mm lens (animal shots). The kids were taken on the 17-70 sigma.

I liked the one of Abbey and Eliza because it looks like Abbey is holding the bird with Eliza watching on

Thanks for looking.

Dang Mike and I was gonna contact you to see if you wanted to meet up at the zoo for a photo shoot soon.

These are great, I love the look of the bear and the detail on the elephant, beautiful DOF.

Kids look great and great capture like you said with Abbey & Eliza.

The bear shot is a cracker. Should run a caption competition.

Such an interesting expression on his face
