My day at the zoo thread . . .

[ET Awful]

Spent about 4 hours at the zoo this morning (and early afternoon) taking pics and testing the new 80-400 lens.

Posted them where everyone would see them (not just the photography group). Take a look when you get a chance and let me know what you think! :)

1. That Ape!

Wonderful photo. They all are but I especially liked the first ape shot.

4. That's probably my favorite too, but those capybars make me

laugh every time. They're just so damned ridiculous :)



I mean . . . they just make me happy :)

2. Those are great, ET...

I'm suffering from a severe case of lens envy.

3. Thanks :)

I am SO happy I went ahead and took the plunge and bought it.

5. Ha!

I was thinking the same thing. "Barrel envy" is a good term to use for a conversation starter, when I am snapping with my old Fujica and run into a pro.
