Anke, What was the event all those togs where there for in the first place?

Its a photography day at a local wildlife park. You get to go in the cages with the animals. More here.

Anke, Having a look now and there are some amazing shots there! Well done! Where they with the 100-400?

About half of them I recall. But to be honest you could get away with the kit lens, the animals were so close. Perhaps you have something like it near you?

Walking around London today I got quite a few shots of other photographers. So many, in fact, that I've started deleting them (or not taking them in the first place) unless there's something interesting about them. Here are some of the ones I kept.

All shot with a 70-300mm f4-5.6 IS USM lens on a Canon 40D. Post-processing: tweaked fill light, highlights, and shadow in Picasa. Also tweaked sharpness and saturation in some cases. Saved at 85% quality in the Gimp.

Statue Photographer
1/250 sec @ f/5, ISO 800, Av mode, fl:220mm, partial metering

This living statue on London's South Bank has been photographed so many times he's now started getting his own back.

1D Shooter
1/160 sec @ f/5.6, ISO 800, Av mode, fl:280mm, partial metering

This tourist was walking around with what looked very much like a Canon 1D casually slung from his wrist on a strap. I was tempted to ask if he'd shot any good ones...

Short And Sweet
1/1250 sec @ f/5, ISO 400, Av mode, fl:200mm, partial metering

This young Oriental tourist at Trafalgar Square looked so short and sweet I just had to get a picture.

Morris Shooter
1/400 sec @ f/5.6, ISO 500, Av mode, fl:300mm, partial metering

There were quite a few photographers at the St George's Day festival at London's Covent Garden today. Including this Morris man. He's already taken the picture, now he's just chimping.

Serious Shooter
1/320 sec @ f/4.5, ISO 400, Av mode, fl:95mm, partial metering

This guy looks like a serious photographer. I mean very serious. Just look at his face...

IMAGE LINK: http://www.flickr.com …s/garryknight/2​425507303/


His And Hers
1/250 sec @ f/5, ISO 640, Av mode, fl:210mm, partial metering

They have a camera each. His looks like a Canon 1D, hers like a new 450D. How sweet.

The Nikon Club
1/125 sec @ f/4, ISO 400, Av mode, fl:70mm, partial metering

I found these tourists at Covent Garden. The guy on the far left had what looked like a D3 and another had a D200. I couldn't see what the other two were carrying, but they were Nikons.
