Lovely set. I especially like the zebra and the long-necked bird looking at the 
camera. Both are stunning.

Cheers,

Subject: GESO - Zoo Shots

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!
