Some animal stuff
Was just getting some stuff ready for submission to the FOTZ dudes and realised I haven't posted any animal stuff for ages... You know what I'm like, can't help myself with these guys
Melbourne zoo a little while ago... Contemplation EXIF: D70, 80-400VR@400mm, F7.1, ISO400, 1/25th!!! (How's that for an ad for VR!) Damn, forgot to sharpen after re-size too... Think it has a slight color cast due to the glass too 
Queen of the castle EXIF: D70, 80-400VR@330mm, F7.1, ISO400, 1/100th. 
Not happy Jan... EXIF: D70,80-400VR@400mm, F7.1, ISO500, 1/80th  Aka Andrew
I like the pussy cat........but a tighter crop at the top and a bit more contrast would help ........ from memory it would have been shot through glass ???
Cheers ....bp....
Difference between a good street photographer and a great street photographer.... Removing objects that do not belong... happy for the comments, but .....Please DO NOT edit my image..... http://bigpix.smugmug.com Forever changing
Thanks for the tip BP, for some reason I always wimp out on the contrast, dunno why. I should have cropped for the post, you're right... Oh, the pussy cat was through cage wires too, no glass for that one, just glass for the monkey in the first shot... Cheers mate. Aka Andrew
Andrew - I always like your animal shots but would agree with bp on increasing contrast

Nice pictures Andrew, look forward to seeing some published in the magazine.
I was going to send in some pictures myself but im too lazy! If i see you there Friday ill be sure to bump you and your big arse lens out of the way just as your about to take a shot, then we will see how good the VR works.  Jamie

Nice images Andrew I agree more contrast would give a little more oomph. Good luck with the submission to the magazine. Great eye contact with the snow leopard
cheers marco
Excellent animal expressions here Andrew, I photographed a possum in QLD last week, then PS to make him crosseyed, and all the kids at the camp I was at loved it! That first shot is a prime candidate for crosseyeing.
One of these days I'll have to start taking things seriously...  But I do like these shots.
