First shoot with the new camera!

[Sylvias]

At the zoo
as usual... it's mostly birds.... my zoo doesn't have really have reptiles and only 2 big cats both of which where not out for pictures today -.- the rest is all monkeys and boring crap..... and annoying fences that make for nasty pics

but here it goes... LOVE the new camera
blue and gold macaw

Scarlet macaw

rainbow lori

Black swan

white ibis

Great blue heron on it's nest (fully zoomed in to 300mm and the picture is still crystal clear ^.^)

my favorite baz, the kookaburra

King Vulture

Crested caracara

red shouldered hawk

Bald eagle

Alligator

Cuban and green anoles (how many can ya spot?)

Green Anole... pretending he is brown...

Flamingo This one is probably my favorite shot from the day...simply because of the water! One thing I have really noticed more than anything else with this new camera is that it really pics up color MUCH better than my old one and the one i notice most is blue!! Blues look so great now!! ^.^

For those who don't know...the new Camera is a Nikon D90 with a Sigma 28mm-300mm lens. shooting fully manual.

Not bad! I am glad you finally got a good lens. Now we have to compare since I got virtually the same camera the other day and went to the zoo today too.

Pelican:

Roseate spoonbill (click on this one and the distortion will go away):

Lorikeet:

Plated Lizard:

More pics in another thread. I am curious to see how our cameras compare though. We will have fun shooting together next weekend I am sure.
