I had to play with it.....

I didnt like the original image, so I took it into photoshop and masked out the tiggie and played with the background to darken it and make it less interesting. Now, I think, the tiggie just pops at ya. :)

More Zoo Shots ;)

Finally got over to the baby Giraffe, but the little butt had to play on the opposite side of the enclosure of me, even when I moved. LOL, oh well such is life ;)

Let's play a little Game ;)

It's called name the object ;) I got some macro filters and decided to play with them, so lets see who can identify these pics. Two are really easy, and two are not so easy LOL

You could think you were cheating by just reading the names of the photos, but did I name them correctly? Good luck :)

Well I had to go to the zoo too :)

Just call me a follower, but I had to see if I could get as good of pics as Kevin did LOL. Yeah I'm just a touch competitive, but he helps me strive to improve ;) Thank you so much for that Kevin.

Send in the Clown(Animals)!

These guys were clowning around at the zoo. The little varmint is for Leoki. Chuu. The arctic fox in the middle is actually related to the one on the previous days posts. Everytime I took HIS picture he'd smile for the camera at least. This pink friend at the end was in a small pond area in the bird house and, as a kid sat on the stone edging ignoring the sign that says not to, he tried to snap at the kids bum!

Chillin' on a Warm (for Canada) day!

These few pics mark the start of a set I'll be posting every day or two for a visit I did to the local zoo. The shots are the hardest (if not the hardest) that I've done, since the Assiniboine Park Zoo in Winnipeg, Manitoba (see: www.zoosociety.com) has a wonderful property but the exhibits are dated, and every shot has to be through mesh industrial fencing around the enclosures. I can't wait until some more modern and more visually appealing fences are laid in the new renovation project.

Pictures to follow daily, keep your eyes open!

So I was to wiped out from work to post....

so I give you four more shots from the Gardens ;) enjoy and be sure to post comments, I would love to hear what you have to say. Dont be shy, feel free to offer suggestions, I am still learning :)
