Lovely shot - I like the fact it looks very natural... I'd never have guessed it's a studio shot.

wow I must visit
normally I don't bother with zoos and such as they always seem so busy and I hate animals in captivity but you seem to have had some good photo opportunities


Oldboy I had friend use to take marvelous macro insect shots one day I opened a draw in his studio and there they were all pinned to card lol

The BWC is well worth a visit. I would also recommend the Hawk Conservancy Trust in Andover if you're ever in the area. The passion and knowledge of the staff really make it an excellent day out.
