A hot day at Chester Zoo

[Dave Semmens]

I would rather not have gone to Chester Zoo in the middle of the school holidays but it was my daughters birthday and she wanted to go

It was a really hot day and most of the animals decided to stay in their holes or in deep shade. The windows also looked like people has smeared grease on them - just love kids

Anyway - a few new arrivals on show - so tried to get a few shots of them and managed a couple of others as well.

Mainly used to Nikon 70-200 F4 (apart from the Zebra) and it never missed a beat

#1, #3 and #4 are my picks!

The shy little face through all that black,
the intensity of the chetah's look and the
the new born… all delicious, Dave!
