    Good shots! We usually hit the zoos when we're on vacation, if one's located where we're going. We go to the St. Louis zoo in Forest Park whenever we get a chance. It's a great zoo and admission is still FREE! Oh, I have dialup here at home (live in the boonies) and the wait wasn't objectionable to me.

    Yikes reminds of how a puppy grows into his ears this lion cub will grow into his mouth! Wonderful shots.

    how much did you pay the animals for the GREAT poses?? Nice shots, like them ALL!!!!!!!!!

    There are great. I have dial-up too and the lion shots came in just fine. It looks like the lion has little baby teeth in the front. I wouldn't want to get near that mouth though. That is a cool shot. My favourite giraffe is the one you called "Hey Hey." It's got attitude.

    Love big cats! My favorite at the zoo. Giraffes always make good pics. You captured great expressions on both lions & giraffes. Thanks for sharing. Made me smile.

    these are great shots! So much character. Looks like a great zoo. I was at the Houston zoo last week--it was generally depressing, with sad, nervous animals. And fences everywhere so my photos aren't worth posting here.
