Don't you love the free animal poses? These are great.... my favorite is the panda.

Life is hard...but I just take it one photograph at a time.

Elisabeth-Ann and Maureen,

I'm very happy you have enjoyed these. I had a blast making them. I still can't believe how well the first two came out. They are the only two in this series shot through wire cages.

Very nice series, I love the first pic of the Lynx. I have been trying to get a good shot of this striking cat for ages but none of my efferts come close to your image.

Mojo,

Thanks so much for the compliments. Perhaps just my lucky day. This is the mother Lynx who was carefully watching out for the kitten in the front of the enclosure. She was really steady and very deliberate with her movements. Early morning walk through the zoo, without many other people around probably added to the animals comfort in "posing" for me.

Hey Bubba,

I took about 6 months and a real gut check to pop for the 100-400 LIS last week. But the payoff so far has been worth the anxiety. I think I'll have to medicate to keep from getting the L fever. This can be a dangerous hobby.

Thanks for checking in.
