The Toronto Zoo

The Toronto Zoo!!! A place I haven’t visited in YEARS… DECADES!  I finally made the trip the other week and I think the description of “a kid in a candy store” would best describe my behavior of this 27 year old on the cusp of 28.  Up until today, it had been the best day to go, not too hot, not too cold, but just perfect.  I went with a great group of friends who enjoy taking photos, so I wasn’t holding anyone up when I took that extra few moments to setup my shot.  That’s always a worry of mine.  I’ve gotten quite good at just adjusting and taking photos on the fly, but generally it’s always lingering in the back of my mind that I’m holding my friends up.  I’m sure many aspiring photographers feel the same way. 

Anyhow, during our day trip we saw about 80-90 percent of the grounds.  Which is very impressive in itself.  There are tons of photos located in my flickr account in this set here “Toronto Zoo 2010”.  But I thought I’d share a few photos here, in my semi-regular updated blog. 

I don’t have the greatest equipment for animal photography but I did what I could.  I was just too excited to take very many photos but I took enough to remember my time there.  After all, my thoughts about photography have always been that they capture the view of the world of the photographer.   I take the images that will help me remember my thoughts and views during that time in my life.  Although I have dabbled in some commercial photography, I try to impose that belief in all my photos and I suppose that is my style.
