Default A day at Melbourne Zoo

I'm not usually into animal/wildlife photography but decided to head to Melbourne Zoo for the day to test out my new 1D Mark III. All shots were taken with 70-200 f2.8L on the front, most with Kenko 1.4x teleconverter as well. I had a great day out and I'm thrilled with the results and the new camera. C&C welcome.

Full set of photos from the day can be seen at http://blackshadow.com.au/gallery/al...ourne-Zoo.html

Orangutang

These shots enticed me to visit your sire so I could see them all. That camera sure captures detail!
