Red River Zoo

Last summer, I took photos at the Red River Zoo. These are the folks that used my photos last year for the calendar, so I took some extra time to play and focused more on the photography than on the resting briefly on the drive to Winnipeg. They had set a deadline of July 15th for a photo contest to determine what would be used in their calendar this year. After I told them that I couldn't hit that, they extended it to the end of August.

Due to some personal life things, I missed that deadline too and figured that I missed it entirely. Then I got an email asking about them... right when my work schedule was going insane. That deadline was 10/31, and I managed to shift just enough work around to get the photos processed in time. Today I got an email from the Development Coordinator that said simply...

"My god Josh! Your photos are amazing!" which helped turn my mood right around (hard day at work).

She was talking about this set.
