*yawn*
Went to the Indianapolis Zoo with roomie today. Had a great time and took lots of pics, but I am just whupped right now; it's been a long day in the hot sun. Bobbi is already napping and I'm thinking about doing likewise. More later...

Incidentally, I'm obscenely happy with the above photo, which is an un-cropped and un-manipulated pic from the ~$70 Kodak P&S that I picked up from Wally World on the fly while I was down in K-town for the LuckyGunner shoot.
He looks like he needs a tummy-rub! Got up at 6:00am and drove down in the fog and mist to the range - shot like crap in the final analysis but got two X's offhand so I feel better anyhow. Neener to the final analysis, but it's been another cold summer so far. I remember when Summers were hot and nobody wore shoes for months...
I had a Kodak Z915. My only gripe was that the autofocus took forever, it was too easy to take the pic before it was focused, and I couldn't tell it was out of focus until I got home and saw it on the PC. Recently picked up a Canon ELPH 300 HS. Much more happiness with the pics.
Going to the zoo is like watching a James bond movie. Either you're excited to see 007 save the world again, or you're not. ;)
ReplyDeleteI happen to enjoy both!
Zoos are interesting, I some times wonder if the fences are to keep the animals in, or the idjits out... :-) Enjoy the nap!

The polar bear at the Madison zoo was in his little hiding spot and all we could see was his butt...
