[singlepic id=1907 w=480 float=left] A gerenuk… which is a very odd looking creature that mostly reminds me of the reindeer in the old Rudolph movie. Not exactly sure why. Picture taken with Canon Rebel XT, EF 70-300mm @ 300mm, 1/1000 sec shutter, f/11, ISO 1600
[singlepic id=1906 w=480 float=left] Duh… Dum… Duh… Dum… Hippo. I wish the nearer eye was open, but it was not taking requests. From Animal Kingdom back in 2006 when I first had a fancy camera and long lens. Picture taken with Canon Rebel XT, EF 70-300mm @ 300mm, 1/1000 sec… Continue reading
[singlepic id=1892 w=480 float=left] Epcot, obviously. I think I’ve been there three times. I think every time I’ve been less impressed. When I was there in 6th grade (no camera), I remember running around to all the countries and seeing all the unique stuff and thinking it was awesome (Magic… Continue reading
[singlepic id=1891 w=480 float=left] I’m not entirely sure what the larger foreground sculptures are, though I’m good enough to figure out that that’s a replica Eiffel Tower. Taken at sunset in Epcot. Picture taken with Canon Rebel XT, EF 70-300mm @ 225mm, 1/500 sec shutter, f/7.1, ISO 100
[singlepic id=1890 w=480 float=left] One of the good shots of a tiger I got at Animal Kingdom many years ago. I took a huge number of pictures, but I was more enamored with having a fancy new camera and a 300mm lens than getting good shots. This mainly meant that… Continue reading
[singlepic id=1863 w=640 float=center] I don’t know why this was taken at ISO 800 f/16 when outdoors on a bright, sunny day. Too late to do anything about that now though… The Grant Memorial in Chicago.. Pictures taken with Canon XT, EF-S 18-55mm lens @ 18mm, f/16, 1/640 sec, ISO… Continue reading
[singlepic id=1598 w=480 float=left] A seagull… which I’m sure everyone has seen before. I don’t have a huge amount of time spent taking bird in flight pictures, but I think this is one of the better ones I’m managed to get. I think it was taken on Skillagalee Island. Picture… Continue reading
[singlepic id=1597 w=480 float=left] A Northern White-Cheeked Gibbon. These are pretty common in zoos all over, or, at least they also have some in the Lincoln Park Zoo in Chicago. Picture taken with Canon Rebel XT, EF 70-300mm @ 300mm, 1/400 sec shutter, f/7.1, ISO 1600
[singlepic id=1596 w=480 float=left] A Masked Lapwing – a very goofy looking, floppy faced bird. Picture taken with Canon Rebel XT, EF 70-300mm @ 300mm, 1/160 sec shutter, f/5.6, ISO 1600
[singlepic id=1595 w=480 float=left] This is the same Victoria Crowned Pigeon from before, just another shot of it, apparently with a shutter speed of 1/20 of a second, which seems ridiculous. I must have moved by the exact same amount and direction as the bird for this to have come… Continue reading
