LOOKING FOR TROUBLE

CHESTER ZOO

I have been too busy this week to get any photography done, really frustrating as I wanted to play with my new toy. Anyway, the weather forecast was good for this afternoon (correctly for once!) so I headed out to Chester Zoo to give the 20D a workout. I am really pleased with it and looking forward to using it a LOT this summer. Unfortunately, my PC now needs upgrading as it is running really slowly, processing the much bigger image file sizes, it's going to take a long time to go through my images until then.

Anyway, the subject of today's PaD is one of my regular models, a baby orang utan at Chester Zoo. I have been photographing his family, over the last few months, since he was a babe in arms. He is now getting more independent and wandering off on his own to cause mischief. You can find more pics of the orangs in my Chester Zoo gallery, with lots more to be added this week.

All comments are gratefully received. Thanks.

Wonderful, you should get down to Dorset and visit Monkey World... you won't know which way to turn first!! Great photo. You're on the same path I was! Had to upgrade my PC as well due to both the increased volume of pics I take with the 20D and the RAW processing... If you're building yourself be very careful about heat, new P4's are monsters.
