Very nice set here mate...

Did you venture in to the butterfly area? Some special shots to be had in there... I went today and caught this in the monkey enclosure.

didnt get much of the monkeys they were inside and i didnt even get a decent shot of them how the smegging hell do you shot through the glass at zoos

I think at the end of the day try to reduce people stood behind you, as it reduced reflections.

Try to get as close as the glass will allow...

And the rest is luck. This little feller jumped right onto the window ledge for me...
