Chessington

Yesterday I returned to Chessington, for probably the first of a number of visits this year.

Was rather happy to see 6week old Meerkats as well as other new animals to the zoo.

Also really like the Otters and managed to get one in mid yawn.

I normally keep my camera on ISO100 but I tried the higher settings to get a better and faster shutter speed as I was using the 100-400 lens and most of the shots were being taken at over 300mm. Once I got home I was happy that the noise was not too bad and with a quick clean using paintshop pro x2 the images came out well.

below are a few of my favourites from the day.

  1. Great photos, as ever, Peter… Most of them look like they could be in the wild!
