Picture 6 seems to be out of place. However, it was taken from the KL Bird Park. The staff uncovered the story. The monkey was from the forest within the area. They managed to rescue the poor fella from a fight. Apparently it was seen happily clinging around the mother until an unfortunate turn around change the fate of this poor little monkey. The mother got bullied by other monkeys. There was a huge struggle. Within seconds, they saw the poor fella lying motionless on the floor. Immediately the staff picked it up and provide medical treatments. Not sure, on the fate of the mother.... what a story, yar!

Hhmm ....darn, I wish I was there to witness the entire scenario. It will be nice to take shots of the action... it will be my version of National Geographic! ...

Goldfries: In some way, this trip not very good for me leh.. I didn't take so much pics and also the bird is the same one. Furthermore, I missed out on the 2nd area. Didn't even know there was one so take slow-slow walk on 1st area..

his friendster
he is not the 1 tat create it...

yeah i missed out 1 area also, the part near the amphitheatre.

the birds are same lor, which is i why i sometimes felt it was a peacock farm. which is also why i spend more time looking for compositions rather than just birds portraits. so like this, even same type of bird but can have more angles to look at.

another thing i kept an eye out for are actions, they make the composition more interesting.

oh another thing is i went really really slow. remember starting that time everyone cram around the peacock? seriously la, i have no idea why majority at that point of time are like never seen peacock before. LOL *sorry la, don't intend to offend anyone. it just looked that way*

anyway i waited for the crowd to go off first then slowly take my time to camp and wait here and there. lesser human around, less stress / threat to the birds. more area to move around and compose.

-----

*ok anyway since we're always only showing pic, perhaps we could also share about which of our shots we found interesting and what you went through to get it.

i think of all my shots, this one took the longest to get it right.



damn tiring but most rewarding. btw i was under trees, so bird shit can come any time. the place also probably one of the most smelly area.

what i had to wait for?

1. subject to come to the food
2. subject to not go away
3. peacock at the back to be at the right angle and at the same time have the subject not straying away from points 1 and 2.

damn tiring. aim. focus. wait. arrghh wait wait. finally i get what i wanted.

I think I spend quite a long time taking the few close-up of the Brahminy Kite, the eagle was very near the fence so had to go manual focus and burst a few shots, forgot how many I took, but it was quite a lot haha. had to focus and burst, then refocus and burst, coz the eagle was turning its head. some one from photomalaysia mention the eagle looks sad, I think it's too coz it's was making noise that sounded sad



most of my shots were close-up, something that I couldn't do with my 17-85 during the zoo trip

superb detail... the 100mm macro is just superb.... the longer the better isn't it

hehe yup good thing i went for the 100mm instead of 60mm
