This is my entry for the #monomad challenge.
This afternoon i went for a walk in the zoo with the old big Sigma lens 150-500mm , although we have a modern Sony A7IV camera this lens has to be used on Manual focus simply because they don't talk to each other .
But still we managed to get some decent photos without a tripod.
I used smaller images then normaly 1024px just to see if it makes a difference in response of people with slooooooooooooooooowwwwww internet conections.
It was not what you would call a sunny day but atleast it was a dry day , some photo where taken with ISO +6400 but the overal image quality was still good enough for posting.
Maybe that is also why there were a lot less people in the park then usually , giving me a better opertunity to take some photos .
That is one of the benifits of having a season ticket for the zoo you can go in and out whenver you like .
1 ) sleeping snow owl, didn't move a musle .
2 ) baboon, staring at what other baboons where doing.
3 ) Crocodile
4 )
5 ) Camel
6 ) Coloeus monedula / Western jackdaw
7 ) Rhino
8 )maternity visit young baboon
9 ) another mother baboon with her new young
10 ) Leucojum aestivum / summer snowflake
11 )Barcode on four legs
12 ) Yellow mongoose didn't want to move that much i guess it was still a bit to cold for it.
13 ) Pinquin nr 5
14 ) one hungry pregnant goat
15 ) and finally before we go to the exit of the park the prariedogs
Well that was my zoo visit today, I hope you have enjoyed the little trip .
