Decent weather today, so we downed tools and paid a long overdue visit to the local zoo at Gramat. Have has mixed success with the camera recently, but I'm not too dispointed with some of these.

I like the highland mookie, also the highland mookie, not forgetting the highland mookie, it's an absolute peach of an image, beautifully framed by the tree, BG nicely OOF but not too blurry. Bright light well controlled.

Yes, there's loads to like here-well done :clap::clap:
