Genewitch, I shoot in RAW so the image I have is twice as large as you mentioned. Ms C, Thanks for the continuing support.

Genewitch,

I shoot in RAW so the image I have is twice as large as you mentioned.

Ms C,

Thanks for the continuing support.

Travis,

The gorillas did seem a lot friendlier than the cops I encountered that night.

Great shots! That 5D/300mm pumps out some excellent results. I’ve really been looking forward to a zoo trip w/the Pentax I got this year.
