Sooooooo. The zoo.
Ok everything was caged or glassed in. I felt terrible for the animals even though I know they are taken care of very well.
I just don't like to see em like that. Ropes and fences everywhere to keep STUPID PEOPLE from from getting what they deserve.
The Alligator pit looked like a small swimming pool...........or as granny from the Beverly Hillbillies would say , " the cement pond."
I didn't even bother with trying to shoot anything through glass windows. None of it looked like a natural setting to me.
Maybe because I'm so use to doing it the way I do it. Lighting was a problem. A big problem. I couldn't get where I needed to be without being kicked out of the Zoo.
Which was tempting.
All in all, the Zoo is more challenging than I thought it might be. Working with an un-natural setting and trying to turn it into a natural setting for photogenic purposes while attempting to get the right light, is taxing.
Being overcast for most of the day, with the sun peeking out once in a while didn't help.
So there. There are all my excuses. The Zoo is just not for me.
Here's what I got. Just wait until you see my Elephant image. lol
