New Pictures

     We went to the zoo, and I was able to get some pictures.  Unfortunately I'm quite convinced that taking a good tiger picture is impossible at the zoo; the glass is foggy with dirt and hand prints, you have to take the picture through bars, or the animal itself is either out of sight, or moving too fast(or being lazy and just sleeping).
     Squirrels don't pose well, either.  At home I saw one in a tree, and was able to run inside and get the telephoto(long distance) lens.  Once he either saw or heard me coming he scurried of to another part of the tree, and I followed, he scurried, and so on.
     Ah, well.  I suppose that's part of what makes photography an art, and I am really liking it, by the way!




Hope everyone is getting good pictures!

  1. Nice day for the zoo!

    Mr. Rhino is a good shot for a future assignment. See if you can figure out which one in the upcoming weeks.

  2. Harbor Seals:

    Not bad, but could use some tweaking...what could you do to make it more interesting?

  3. I could Photoshop a great white shark into that big, empty space(just kidding). Do you mean cropping it? If so, I could cut it down to just the front seal facing the right, that way the subject would fill the space a bit better.
