Default More Hot, Hot, Hot...Continued....

These are some of my shots from our visit to the zoo. I got to spend the day with my Mom and my girls. It was a fun day as usual full of many laughs but oh my goodness it was a hot one for sure! I am surprised we saw any animals at all.


Flamingo Head and Water Drop

Lemur

Parrots

Black Leopard

Thanks for stopping by!

Wow, I love the flamingo and the water drop, great focus. The lemur is so cute, he looks so soft. The parrots are so pretty sitting there in their rain forest, and the black leopard is staring right at you, and I know how hard some of these shots were to get, good job. Of course the best part of the day was spending it with you and the girls...and the uninvited giant flying beetle that seemed to be following us LOL.

These are all just fun. They are a great reminder of our amazing world. I just love your flamingo shot. It is the most unusal angle on one I have ever seen and helps you see this amazing bird afresh. I especially love the bend in his neck and the look in his eye. The nice dark background sets it off so well.

Very nice set, like the clarity and angle of the first shot best,
