I have been following the progress of the new male Lion at the Adelaide Zoo each weekend. The shot was taken yesterday, when he was under a shelter, hence the dark background, having lunch. Looked to be a upper leg portion of a horse.


D2x + Nikkor 300mm f/2.8 + TC-14EII
ISO320, 1/250s, f/4, and 420.0mm

C&C welcomed.

without the flu I hope...... nice capture, he was busy.....

Nice capture Fozzie. Look at those teeth!

Nice one fozzie,

I like the tight crop and the dark background, works well. BTW, I assume you will be first to post panda shots when they get transferred to sunny Adelaide

cheers,

André

Nice shot Fozzie. I think I would like a little pan to the left, to get the paw in.

Were all the Zebra still there?

Fozzie, nice work as usual..now if the old tiger had teeth like that. Pandas are not going to be here until late 2008 early 2009, so we will have to wait a while..

Daniel - this was shot in HSC mode. It has only been cropped top and bottom.

I am sure he would each Zebra, if only he could get to them

Andre - thank you for your comments.

I will attempt to get the first shot of the new Pandas

The Adelaide Zoo needs to do some preparation work before late 2008 or early 2009. New enclosure area, and the main thing is to organise an external planting area for bamboo, as each animal has the capacity to each 100 kilos a day.
