I know everyone will probably want to start their own threads, but thought it would be nice to see a collection of yesterdays photos in one place. So, let's see some of your efforts from the Whipsnade Nutters meet and post a link to any threads you have started if you want more indepth critique.

Here are some of mine, and I think it's fair to say I have never done so badly at Whipsnade :LOL: Hoping the film pics of you guys are better than my animal efforts, but it was still a great day regardless and I got a few keepers [photographic, not zoo] worth sharing, mainly of the lions although I think my fav is the cheetah at the end of the day. Oh yes and at least I got to see the baby pygmy hippo, even if the photos are rubbish :D

Lions first, in the snow.

Cheetahs - first thing in the morning, then last thing before heading home, in the low sun

Otter [got loads of feeding otters, need to go through them properly and sort out the better ones]

A couple of extra ones on my flickr, including a rubbish baby hippo pic if you want to go have a look.

So lets see what you did :D
 
Had a great day... here are a few of mine will start my own thread with adventures of a red panda but here it is having a coffee break.

Actually only one is chimping :eek: and the rest of the nutters are taking photos...I'm not naming any names :p
 
A couple from me, TBH I didn't take that many,
I was just enjoying the fun :)
Gob shots were hard to come by too.

Just to dispell a myth, @Tintin124
Bryn DID get a red panda shot,
well if he didn't he needs shooting :p

The Cheetah thought it prudent to hide and laugh at the people around me
But I still got her

I love that Red Panda shot of yours @Cobra
 
Some nice photos there everybody. It's a nice you had some snow for added interest. I'm glad you all had a good time. Hopefully I can join you in a few years.
 
Nice pics evryone

@Yv Lovely pic of the cheetah sitting down and really like the wolf.
@Tintin124 peeking wolf is very nice
@dinorock very nice tiger pics, love the reflection shot
@dejongj Zebra is my fave there.
@Cobra nice panda portrait

A couple of scenic shots while I get around to processing the animals, one of which will fill my scenic shot for the 52.

But the cheetah is OK though Chris? :p

Again its the sun on the glass giving a back reflection, as it was just a fun shot,
I didn't bother too much with the "tweaks"

Cracking set from you too Chris (y)
 
I enjoyed these.

Looks like you had four seasons in one day !
 
Cracking images, especially the the wolves and wolverine in the snow (y)
 
OMG!!! I just emptied my bag from yesterday, and found the two tickets, entry and car ticket. Turned them over to find they have photos on them and thought 'oh, that looks vaguely familiar' - just went and checked and yes, the photo is of the lemurs and came from a set I donated to their image library from back in 2009, the last time I went when it had snowed [albeit no snow in this photo] :D

Its THIS picture if any of you got the same tickets, imo one of the less good they got, but they obviously like it.
