Not my usual "motorsport" photos this time but something a little bit different ;)

Had Thursday off work so went to the Longleat Safari Park Zoo, it's one you can drive through :) At just £10.00 I thought it was well worth the money! There was lots to see and we even had a couple of monkeys play-fighting on our bonnet/roof - quality!!

The only downside was the overcast and showery conditions, will more than likely visit in the summer when it will hopefully be warmer and sunny :) Enjoy ;)

Here's a few compressed "forum friendly sized" photos...

#1 Ouch

If you want you can view more and larger versions here - http://www.ae-photography.co.uk/2004​06.html (external link) (be patient it may take a few seconds to load up)

Not so easy for getting shots as I'd like, almost all were taken from the car - which I've never done before (usually I'm stood up) so took a bit of getting used to. Also I kept getting "beeped" at by the wardens as your not supposed to wind your window down in the Lion or Wolf enclosures heh :p :)

As ever please comment, I always take onboard what you say (good or bad) and try to improve next time ;)

Cheers :)

*EDIT* Wooo my 100th post :)

I used to live 10 minutes from there so had a season ticket for the place and went to the Safari PArk several times. It's a good day out. I took some great shots there and got plenty of beeps from wardens in the pens. Last time I went there were Wolf cubs which were very cute but I wasn't able to get decent shots. My avatar shot was taken there first time I went to try out my ex Bigma.
