Nice collection Mark. You managed to find some good light and good
backgrounds too which is not always easy at a zoo.

I've been away for a while, and along the way I spent a few days in St.
Louis, MO where I had the chance to tour their very nice zoo. Here are
are few snaps:

Except for the accidental IR shot, all were taken with the K5 and an
older (non-DG version) Sigma 135-400 f4.5-5.6 APO zoom. This proved to
be an ideal zoom for the zoo, with 135mm being a little too long in just
one or two situations. The K5's high ISO ability and in body IS was also
a great asset. The owl shot was taken handheld inside an aviary at ISO
1600, no flash, 1/45th of a second at 400mm and still came out pretty
sharp - great testament to the in body IS!
