Default Stunning Wildlife
Ok, these shots are from a trip to the local zoo but I prefer calling them 'wildlife shots' to make it sound more exotic.









Light was a bit low in some shots cos of the overcast day. Comments/suggestions welcome..

those are all good but I like the tiger best and the dof in the parrot shot is great. Also like the lion and the rain drops on the flower, despite the overcast. Did I say they are all good?
