I love the second and the third (although I do find the sig distracts from the tongue somewhat!)

great shots airic, some cool textures and angles on these... it takes alot to impress me with 'zoo' shots, these are great :thumbup:

Holy moly Airic. Stunning shots man. Were the tigers really out, or did you have to shoot through that glass. None of the animals have been out the last 2 visits there. They have been hiding in the shadows behind the glass. Even the phants were there.
Excellent work buddy.

Thanks everyone. I was lucky as I went shooting with one of the managers whose store I service and he got us into the zoo for free. He shoots photos for their postcards, cool. If I had to pay I would have been disappointed as there were not many animals out at all. Carl, one Siberian Tiger was out. As well, we saw some sleeping lions and a Cheetah but I did not take photos of them. The gorilla images were shot on manual focus through a fence as they let them go outside when we were there. With a short DOF I was able to shoot through the fence easily. Can't wait to go back.
