Am I the only person that feels guilty posting a zoo image?

I shot the following today.
I like the image, but I don't feel like I earned it.

Did you sneak in the zoo, or pay to enter?


just a few of my thoughts...

Beautiful shot; and there's nothing wrong with posting zoo shots, IMO, unless you're trying to pass them off as "wild" shots. As long as it's noted, I see no problem. :)

Even professional wildlife photographers take their best shots under controlled conditions. It's a very good shot and you've earned legitimate praise. Sometimes I think taking zoo pictures is extra tough-you're surrounded by endless screaming kids and their parents and it's really, really hard to concentrate.
