    You’ve done well here.. what lens? She never sits too close to anything other than the back wall, so you have done well indeed. Love the focus on the eyes..

  • I lucked out with the Gorillas on the second day…after the keeper talk they were all very active and she moved around to the left hand side, not that far away from me. I got hardly any of them the first day, the second I got lots of the babies and I got her hugging hers just before I left :) Was the 100-400, in fact I used it exclusively.

    Yeah its a brilliant lens, I want it! But my 50-500 ‘Bigma’ is giving me great results at the moment, so can’t complain. The Gorillas are hit and miss.. seems every second time I go, they don’t come out of there little room. What can ya do!
