More Melbourne Zoo pics
At the risk of being boring, here are 3 pics I took at the Melbourne Zoo this week. They were all taken with a Tamron 200-400 f5.6. This lens is heavy, weighs about 1.2 Kgs, so some form of support is a must.

Hi Meicw...new lens hey? The third one looks nice asnd sharp. Probably needs a touch more room on top. My fav is the lion shot though. I actually quite like the crop. Something different.
The bird is a White faced Heron. As for the bird guide book, I have the Simpson & Day "Field Guide to the Birds of Australia". There are a few different guide books around but I'm quite happy with that. Nicole

Great photos! The lion looks pretty sad...or could just be bored
Thanks for all your kind replies. None of the pics is cropped. (I know that sentence sounds incorrect, but the word 'none' is singular (negative of 'one' ) and so should take a singular form of the verb.)
Nicole. I was leaning to that book. Thanks for the reply. Regards Meicw
