I got my tonsils out last Friday and have been getting cabin fever laying around the apt. Since today was the first day I felt an improvement, I thought I'd go to the zoo.

Thanks! Yep it was the 100-400L. Most of them I had the Kenko 1.4x TC on there too.

Beautiful shots! Guess you don't need tonsils to take good photos! Glad you're feeling better.

Wow. Which lens did you use? Thost close ups are amazing. I love the definition in the fur in the last 3. I also love the bokeh in the butterfly picture. NIce captures.

hahaha! thanks! I secretly made it my mission to disprove the popular myth that tonsils are necessary for good photography. :)

Thanks. :) I used the 100-400L. It was my first real test of it since I got it. I also had the Kenko 1.4x TC on most of the day (except in the butterfly exhibit and aviary)
