I was at Dublin Zoo yesterday and stumbled on a Photo Call for the introduction of three new White Rhinos. Thanx to my 70-200 2.8 the zoo PR people assumed I was press too ;)

There was two TV crews and 9 photographers (must have been a slow news day) between the 9 photographers there was 14 white Canon lens, all Canon Cameras. I tmust be very discouraging for Nikon!

Anyway here are a few of the shots I got, any comments welcome.
