Above is a photo from that day of a Puma (taken outside through a wire fence). 

I am enjoying taking photos inside this winter in the Primate House. The primates are housed behind glass windows but for the most part the photos come out pretty well.

A few suggestions when shooting through glass:

1. you will have reflections so try to position yourself to minimize their inclusion in your composition.

2. I read an article that suggests using a polarizer to cope with this problem. I have not tried this as yet mainly as that would reduce the light for what already is a fairly low light situation.
