When my new pet lens arrived over the summer, the super yummy and delicious 50mm 1.2, it was cause to celebrate! And so, Husbone and I renewed our membership to the Wildlife Conservancy Society and made our way to the Bronx Zoo to put our membership to work. Armed with a free t-shirt and many shiny parking passes, we cut in front of the line (members only, people), and frolicked, cameras in tow. Husbone chose the zoom lens, a fine choice for our excursion. But we were very lucky, perhaps because it was such a nice day out, many of the animals chose the up close and personal approach to being nagged at by small children and the general public.

I love the zoo! I love my lens! This was the first time both Husbone and I made pictures together at the zoo, and the challenge of many fast moving animals, the obstacle of ankle high children speeding past us and stealing my flip flop, the various lighting conditions, and the limited time that is polite to grab a shot and go made for very good practice and was a blast! The zoo is kind of our place. If all else fails - go to the zoo! Support wildlife! Take pictures!
