Photography of (almost!) wild animals

[paardje]

Besides gaming and going to destroy Digiex (just kidding you guys, just KIDDING!) I'm also totally into photography. I dunno what you will do to me after I post this, but I just want to show off some nice pics that I took yesterday in the Rotterdam Zoo...

Been to the zoo in Rotterdam, Netherlands and took some nice shots... (and yes, it's the 1rst time that I actually post photos on this forum so PLEASE BEAR WITH ME...!)

Snowowl (read: Hedwig!)

Parrot 1

Parrot 2

Pole fox!

Toucan

Bearded agame lizard

Komodo dragon!!!!!!!

Nope, no idea how he is called...

Nice birdshot!

Very colorful Pheasant

Skink

Green salamander


You like 'em, folks?

Some fantastic shots there, it looks like you got really close to the animals for some of them (or have a very good lens to zoom in so close)

The Pole Fox and Toucan are my favs but all the shots are really great

Thanks for posting them for us to see!

If you want more, just SHOUT! (or is there a limit for posting pics?) Well, I got a Olympus SP550UZ camera with 18 x optical zoom and one baby of zoomlens!

Be careful what you wish for.......

EDIT: By demand: more piccies!

 

[InsaneNutter]

Any chance we can request high resolution copies of a couple of the pics? some would make very nice backgrounds

 

[AntiNaz]

Amazing. Absolutely amazing. Thank you.

Very nice pictures sir . I agree with InsaneNutter, some of those would make excellent wallpapers; keep them coming.

Well, I could try to zip a folder and put it on rapidshare or something like that...

 

[InsaneNutter]

You can attach 250mb zip files to Digiex or jpeg images up to 10mb!

Click advanced reply and look for manage attachments, no need for rapishare

If you can post some high res images up that would be great!
