If any one has some quick tips on how to get rid of the fence haze on images 2 and 9 , I'm all ears.

I'm not selling these so I really don't want to spent an hour or so cleaning them up with the clone tool.

Thanks for looking.

I'm maybe wrong but I think the clone tool is going to be your only choice here and worth the effort. I had a similar photo I took a few years ago and cloning out the fence in PS made it real special, took a long time & patience but was worth it I felt. There was a similar fence to yours right across the front of this bear.

Thank you guys and girls for the nice comments I really appreciate it, hopefully next time I can catch the tigers further away from the fence line so I don't have to crop in so close.

Are you serious? Was that really a petting zoo? :shock:

They look really dangerous, especially the Canada goose with it's sharp beak. :mrgreen:

Nicely done. Thanks for sharing.

Of course not all animals were available for petting. I personally did not pet any. (the camera gets jealous sometimes )

The animals that were avaliable for petting and feeding were:

A few kangaroos
About 3 different types of Ducks( including the candian ones)
The Peacock ( this guys was speeding around the park ducking in an out of different cages.)
A Couple Camels
Some goats
Some Horses
Some Ponys
A ton of white tailed Deer

The park is called Living Treasures and is located near Seven Springs Mountain Resort in Pa.
