Most of the time I actually hate it when people take, share, and otherwise advertise their zoo pictures. The average photographer can't possibly pick up the nuances of, say, a zebra or hippo, that would actually make the picture interesting. Zoos are this place where everyone with a camera seems like a tourist to me... simply because the pictures only say one thing: "Hey, there was this cool giraffe, and I was there standing in front of it!"
So, this day that Annabelle and I trekked to the Portland Zoo with Aunt Sissy was my day to take a slough of exactly those kinds of pictures. But, you have to realize something: Portland hosts no ordinary zoo! I think the pictures speak for themselves.
**Aunt Sissy's guestbook post is coming! Be not disappointed!
