guppiecatContinuing my photo sets from flickr.
Here is my next set. I visited the Minnesota Zoo this fall. I didn't get to go on the Minnesota trail (closed for renovation), but I got some good tiger pictures and a lot of inside pictures. I will be posting the tiger set in a few minutes. This is the generic set.
If you're interested in the whole thing, here is the set otherwise, continue below for highlights.
Sea Dragon
Monkey figuring out the world - See, it's a neural net in action.
Tortoise - He's under a heat lamp, I underexposed to get this effect, and I think it worked well.
Lizard of some sort - I really like how this one turned out. I need to try again from a different angle, so it looks like he's hanging on the inside of my monitor.
Ring Tailed Lemurs - Another one of my favorites, this is actually a fairly successful shot at "blurring" out the fencing that keeps them in.
Komodo Dragon - Finally, after about 40 shots, I got one of the tongue. It moves very very fast.
Gibbon
Otter
Hedgehog - See, he's all spikey.
Siberian Tigers Romping - I like how they look like blurs. It reminds me of this excerpt from Little Black Sambo (racial issues aside)
"And they were so angry, that they ran round the tree, trying to eat each other up, and they ran faster and faster, till they were whirling round so fast that you couldn't see their legs at all.
And they still ran faster and faster and faster, till they all just melted away, and there was nothing left but a great big pool of melted butter (or "ghi," as it is called in India) round the foot of the tree."
