Hey guys

Went on a trip down Taronga Zoo today and carried along my trusty 30D and 70-200. Really wanted to capture some apes especially the new mommy gorilla.

Anyway below are my top 2 shots of the day. I just love 'em

Awesome first photo. B&W really suits the shot.

It further reinforces by belief in Evolution not Creation.

That first one is amazing. It's like a posed shot with a human mother and baby. Awesome.

Stunning pictures. I absolutley love number one. If you could speak primate and asked for them to pose it would still be hard to execute such a magnificent shot. Congrats on POTW.

Picture number two really makes me feel for "Bubbles" (MJ's Monkey). Even thought the lighting from the sun should bring a warm feel to the subject, the black and white conversion brings across a cold and lonely portrait.

Nice work.
