St Louis Zoo

I’d like to begin by saying that I really hate zoos.  I hate that so many creatures are captive in cages with man made routines, completely helpless.

However, I did my duty a few weeks back and went along to the family trip to the zoo.  I was not looking forward to it.  I decided it was a good excuse to test out my new 500mm zoom.

I had a wonderful day and would highly recommend St Louis Zoo for a visit.

    Shots like that are why I don’t care how much money we spend on your camera gear, bub. Wow.

    All I want for Christmas is… your camera!

    I have had sooo much fun with it in the year I have had it. I’ve taken thousands of photos and had to buy new backup drives galore LOL

    It’s been worth every penny. It’s a disease though. The camera is never enough, there’s lenses and accessories to be bought! It’s a never ending gift list!

    Is it wrong that I just wanna rub those paws all over my face?

    Or am I flying my freak flag just a little too high?
