300 shots at a zoo is a low score for me - but only a 1/3 dumping I would consider a big improvement

i usually get back with that amount of pics. I just take my time i guess and wait for a nice moment. Works better for me then keeping the shutter button down. Saves some time too, since i dont have to go through all the pics

4 &5: very nice. so awesomely sharp.

Thanks

Awww...they are soooooo cute!!!! Nice photos!!

Yeah cute, till you try too hug one. Thanks for the reply

number 4 is even more exceptional than usual! great stuff keep it up

Cheers

:hail::hail: Dude...I dont come into these galleries anymore, but decided to check out this thread. I dont even know what to say.....bloody brilliant.

BTW...zoo pics.....nah nah.....big no no...See down thereVVVV

Thank you very much. Means alot coming from a guy who takes the most awesome zoo pics (and the darkside stuff too) And well, too each their own. I like going to zoo's. That way you can see animals you would never see. And why not take some pics while you're there

Stunning detail and clarity probably the best lion shots I have seen in a longtime!

Thank you

I shot these with the Sigma 70-300 4-5.6 APO. I always do PP, since i should RAW. Usually its the levels, contrast/brightness, saturation and Unsharp mask.

Thanks mate. Its just shooting alot and with wildlife/zoo animals you have to have alot of patience too. They wont do anything you want them to do. They probably have a sixth sense when it comes to people with camera's in their hands.
