Visit to the zoo

DSC_5211
Last week I went for the first time in a while to the National Zoo and Aquarium, Canberra’s own little piece of animal heaven. It was an opportunity for me to give the Tamron 70-200 a good workout and get in some animal shots.
Unfortunately for me my laziness for not going the previous day had penalised me with the lack of big cats since they were all hiding in the shade from the sweltering sun.
Luckily I was able to get some good reptile shots and managed to get really close to get a few portraits of the Wallabies in the native animals display. Anyway I won’t bore you with more talk, enjoy the photos and if you like them leave a comment.

Wabbit!

Sorting through some memory cards I found a photo that was snapped a while ago of a bunny while I was on campus, walking back to my car. Loaded the RAW into Photoshop and 30mins of of post later I ended up with this.

Big version is on my deviantArt site as usual here.

Enjoy!
