Brown Bear


It was nice to finally be able to take the "Zoomobile" to the Canadian Pavillion, which is all the way on the other side of the Zoo.
It made that walk down and back up the huge hill easier to manage.

On a side note, my wife and I get the keys to our new condo tomorrow, so I probably won't be posting any new photos for a few
days, or maybe a week, or possibly longer (depending on if we get internet access hooked up right away). So...we'll see!

Jellyfish


This was a tough one...hand held, very low light, 135mm lens and no vibration reduction.

Alligator...


...under water. My rubber lens hood popped out while I was shooting, that's why there's a vignetting effect going on, but it
looked kinda cool so I kept it.

He's a celebrity around those zoo parts.

Elephants


Yesterday, we braved the cold winds and occasional rain to bring my wife's aunt and cousin to the Toronto Zoo. This was the
first time I actually went to the zoo with a GOOD camera, and I love what came out of the trip. This is the first of many posts
featuring animals from the day.

Looking Down At Skydome


When the dome was built in the early 90's, a competition was held to name it. It took a while, but the name that was chosen was
"Skydome" because of it's retractable roof. Then a couple of years ago, along comes Rogers (a major media company here in
Canada), who buy it out and change the name to the "Rogers Centre". The people of Toronto named that building! It will always
be Skydome to me! There...there's my mini rant.

CN Tower


Well, Marina and I are officially a married couple! It's been so crazy the past couple of weeks with last minute wedding stuff that
I haven't had time to do any photography stuff what so ever. This past Monday however, Marina and I took her aunt and cousin
(in town from Serbia for our wedding) to the CN Tower, and of course my camera came along!
