Here are some photos I took this summer when I took my son to the Cincy zoo. Please be kind....I do lots of product/macro type of photography but taking photos of things that move around on you...darn that's hard! :lol:

Here is perhaps my favorite photo...I love the big cats!

This polar bear put on quite a show too...was very actively swimming around and playing in the waterfall....looked like fun!

I couldn't have paid this peakcock to pose for me any better than this one did all by himself...

For obvious reasons, I thought this shot lent itself well to being desaturated into black and white....

This shot of the white tigers didn't turn out as well as some of the others I took, but you just gotta love those tigers....

Last but not least, we have the gorillas...gorillas are funny creatures....as this photo demonstrates, they're cute when they're young, but they are far less so as adults...

I hope you enjoyed this little zoo tour! :lol:

Got some really nice shots there. Tiger one is best with the light on its face.

I agree...it's my favorite too. I actually had that one, the polar bear, and the peakcock enlarged to hang in my office. Got 'em matted and everything. They look pretty darn sharp.
