It's been a little while since I went into the Adelaide Zoo, so I went in with the Sigma 150mm f/2.8 macro and G1325.
Here are some of the shots. They're pretty similar to last time I went in...

Tawny Frogmouth

That Frogmouth is very photogenic.

Young Saltwater Crocodile

Splendid Tree Frog

See the remaining shots. I've re arranged some of my galleries to put each animal in its own folder.

Fantastic photos.

Only two comments-

The eyes of the frogmouth in the second picture appear glazed over. Not as appearing to me as the first.

Love the focus on the last one (the knots in the wood are magnificent) but I would have preferred a different angle, perhaps something more from the front of the frog back.

Excellent images, but I agree that the eyes in the second picture seem odd.

Thanks everyone.

I see what you mean. I think I might always have that problem when it isn't looking directly at the camera.

I would have preferred a different angle as well. :(
There was really only one viewing angle and froggy looked comfortable, so wasn't moving.

Thanks
