I went to the Dallas Zoo with a couple friends and I had lots of fun. Here is what came out of the visit. Hope you enjoy.
The stare is sad. I always feel sorry for the animals in a zoo!

@Michael Skorulski: me too. He seemed so depressed.
He looks ready to enter stage left...a lot of apprehension of events to come in this shot. well done! He does look somewhat depressed, but also like he's still in charge!

A fantastic shot Kanyi, I agree he does look sad, bless him, in a perfect world he would be free. I'm really looking forward to seeing you shot's from the zoo. :)

The expression says,"Don't even think about messing with me!"

very nice composition and framing. i agree with Michael and Mary -- looks very sad.

beautiful contrast in the colors and well adapted framing of the main subject

He looks so sad. You enhanced it by having framed him in a corner! Well done.

Wow, neat shot! I really like the composition.
31 Mar 2008 4:17pm
I love how he is half in half out of the frame. Like peeping around the corner!

I'm glad you got a good shot! I like the deep color contrast: green, black and the rock.

He looks like a grumpy old grandfather! Interesting composition!
