Last thread is getting long, starting a new one. Post your favorite zoo photos below.

I will start it off with a recent shot at a summer night opening at Reid Park Zoo. Canon 5D3 with 70-200 2_8 (non IS) and 1.4x extender. Racked out to full 280mm (and cropped in post) and wide open at f4 (extender takes one stop away). ISO 2500.


Awesome photo! :D

That's a nice one. Haven't been to the SDZ for a while. I remember November as being perfect weather in SD.

Yes the weather was perfect. If you have not been there for a while you may not have seen this exhibit. It opened a couple years ago next to the kopje where the klipspringers are. Originally it held a North China leopard, for which the exhibit was too small IMO, but then it held caracal and now serval, for which it is ideally suited.
