I visited the Forest Park Zoo
today with my Canon 1-Dx camera and my 70-200 mm
f/2.8 lens with the 1.4x TC. This is a great lens
combination as a walk-around. I use it for most of
my people photos.
Pictured here is a
Red Panda. He/she is a relatively new arrival at our
Zoo. It is not out very often but well worth it when
it is. This is a 16% crop (i.e., I cropped 16% of
the photo leaving 84%) from the original photo.
The new Sea Lion facility,
Sea Lion Sound, is just
fantastic. You can actually walk under the pool and
see the seals swim by you. Neat stuff! |
