PP Challenge #75

This week's challenge is one we have all shot before, a less than thrilling zoo picture. Adding insult to injury, this was taken with a less than stellar 100-500 mm manual zoom at ISO 1600. Let's see what you can do with it.

The challenge will run 1 week and will close at noon EDST on June 29th.




Here are the mediafire files:

Challenge 75.PEF (RAW)

Challenge 75.jpg (JPEG)

Good luck to everyone and have some fun with it.

Did that giraffe just eat the fence top post? That zoo needs to feed these guys better!

Great start so far. Remeber, you can't win if you're not in.

I worked on this one again adding another pair so it looks like they're arguing over who the father is of their babies.

I also took them right out of the zoo and put them in a field of grass. Too much work?
