Re: A few from Exmoor Zoo

Very nice shots. I especially like 3 & 5. Not so keen on No.1 just because of the fence, however appreciate this may be slightly unavoidable in the 'big cat' area of a Zoo !!

Well done.

Regards, jonandjen.

Good practise run, they're all worthy shots. Hope you get a good day at the safari park Darren.

Re: A few from Exmoor Zoo

Were you shaking a sausage in the air for #5, you certainly got his attention

Nice shots, are any cropped or is that the zoom doing it's job?

All the pics are cropped to some extent, the Cheetah pics I've posted your only seeing about half of the original picture. The Cheetah's are quite good to shoot at this zoo as they seem to sit in one place a lot of the time facing the glass. #5 was taken at about 145mm. I've posted a new one below again this is about half the original picture but taken at 250mm
