Having spent the last few days eating and drinking too much, we decided a family day out was in order. So I persuaded the family that a trip to YWP was what we needed. So armed with my camera off we went. I have to say it was a very pleasurable day with plenty of me and camera time. anyway I thought I’d share a few of my favourites. My favourite animals as always are the Lions and Tigers (well who doesnt love them?), I decided I wanted to try and capture the strength and majesty of them. I have further emphasised these further in PP. Happy to accept any feedback (good or bad). As a side note I’m thinking of arranging a trip to YWP in the new year and gauging interest

I was also once told that no trip was complete without a fun shot of the tonsils (@Cobra ) , so in true style (and a bit of fun)

TBH Chris, I've had stuff going on, and I forgot about it until the other day, its a bit late now, for the usual date, I might leave a couple of months, and see
if that draws a few more.

Depending on the date I might be up for a YWP meet though (y)

TBH It did me a favour as we’re moving house in Jan along with starting a new job. With regards to YWP, I was thinking around April/May time
 
Ok so where are the Polar Bears :(

Those lions are handsome aren't they, lovely set Chris
I might even be tempted to come to a meet now I have more time :eek:

Will do Russ, I take it you are a neighbour then :). I was talking to one of the keepers at the Polar Bears and they were saying that the houses on the left can see the polar bears from their back gardens.Not jealous at all!
 
Thanks for the Victor pics Chris. I love the polar bears :love:
