If I had my time over again ( and another trip to the Zoo will fix that ) I would try and get the paws in the shot as AVKOMP has already pointed out to me.

Tiggggers
Did my first trip to Taronga Zoo yesterday with the D50. Both of these were shot through the glass in the viewing area.

And this is where I met the leprechaun - He told me to burn things
Bloody beautifullllllllllllllllllllllllllll, damn thats a nice tigger, even though no paws still a great pic that i would be very happy with. Well done on the shots print it out put on the wall.

I don't normally like zoo shots, but these are great!
Great colours and good sharp focus and yeh very nice too the eye I think it'd be cool if you could crop right up to the face as well. Are we there yet?
paws or not, these are still good tiggers
well done Steve check out my image gallery @

Some of the best shots I have seen on this forum have been taken not with a D70, D2H, D2Hs or even the D2X but the humble D50 and these two shots enforce my opinion - excellent.

These are great images despite your misgivings. The colours are superb.

Thanks everyone who replied. I am very lucky to have a sharp lense to throw on the front of the D50. As it was the first time out with the 300 I am still very much in learning mode re: framing, general handling and use. But the great thing about digital is that all those "Lost" frames you would normally pay for and throw away are now FREE!!!!
And this is where I met the leprechaun - He told me to burn things
Brilliant clarity and colour. If these are your results in your learning phase then you're going to come up with some absolute crackers when you really know what you're doing!

Wow! Lovely shot, but due to this shoot, I am now planning to visit the zoo
Sir Tristam: Are you planning on going again anytime soon? Maybe a minimeet? Cheers,

Thanks very much for the comment Manta.
And yes Trieu I am hoping to go back again soon as a couple of shots I really wanted did not turn out as expected so I'm keen to try them again. If you want to meet up at the Zoo thats no problem. And this is where I met the leprechaun - He told me to burn things
Purrrrfect shots. On my next visit to Taronga, I must take some Windex and a cloth to get rid of all those stickly little fingers placed on the glass.

The images are exquisite Sir Tristram. Gorgeous colour, SHARP and terrific OOF background and bokeh. The first image looks as though its 3D. It is a MUST have lens. Maybe in a year or two DEFINITELY when i retire.
cheers marco
gorgeous shots!
