This is probably my favourite this year (technically captive as it was taken in a butterfly house)

Great shots peps. Chris your one is awesome, you snapped it just at the right moment and you didn't bugger up the exposure either ;)

One of my favs from the caged world taken back in January, I didn't get out much this year to zoos and the like unfortunately.

Those are some great big cat shots! Where, in your opinion, is the best place to photograph them?

I love Whipsnade, Marwell is good too.
And some of the "big cat days" that get advertised around the country are
well worth a vist, as you can get up close and personal.
but they do tend to be about £100 / day

There is a Whipsnade meet on 14th Jan if you are free?

Most 'different' of the year.

I am loving the Zebra from Nathalie, i have been trying to get something like that for a while now.

Stepping away from the big cats that i normally photograph i'll say that this is my pick for 2011.

This young gorilla dived in to a bigger gorilla's pile of food and legged it with a few bits. The look on it's face was of worry as the larger gorilla voice it's disapproval!

I think I will go with this one.
