These were taken from the tour bus at monarto today... you have no say on where or when the bus stops but the drivers try and pick suitable spots so you can take a good photo..

What? You didn't get out of the bus in the big cat's enclosure?
I agree, very rich and natural looking shots. You've got some other nice shots too.

Very nice shots....Did you use a monopod? Does the OS work with the canon camera?

cant use the mono pod in the bus as the engine vibration is transmitted through it, so hand held.. Yes you can use the OS when using the mono normally, because unlike the Canon lens, the Sigma does not have auto sensing of the presence of a tripod or mono..

Great pics. Along with your giraffe images, these are excellent. Although i hate to see animals in captivity, it looks as though these are well looked after and happy.
