Singapore Zoo

My photography guru took me to Singapore Zoo. Compared to Bristol Zoo, which is up-close and personal, Singapore Zoo is huge. But thanks to his lens, the animals were brought so much nearer. Never knew I could have so much fun "shooting" the animals. I am now so tempted to get my hands on a "pull and push" lens, that takes me from 100 to 400mm.

Compare the photos with the post in Oct 14 of Bristol Zoo, which do you prefer?


Proboscis Monkey


Zebra


White Tiger with one eye injured


Pair of Jackals


Baboon


Baby Orangutan


This one is not an animal from the zoo. This is Benny, my guru with his equipment.

Birthday Party Feb 15

Birthday party at Pasir Ris Park amongst family. 3 birthday kids, Gregory, Nicholas and my niece Iris. Very good timing - all within one week, 8th, 12th and 14th Feb. Very economical - one party, one cake, share amongst 3.
