Tree Huggin’ Tiger
by tane on Feb.04, 2010, under Photography
Now there’s something that you don’t see everyday… or at least, I don’t!
This tiger was very agile, and clawed its way up this tree in no time, until it got too high for comfort and then slowly (and much less confidently) clambered back down.
Lion: Look & Claw
by tane on Feb.01, 2010, under Photography
Another shot from my recent trip to Paignton Zoo. There’s something really quite scary about looking a Lion in the eye.
I seem to be going through a bit of a black and white phase at the moment… i’m sure some colour shots will turn up sometime soon ![]()
The Big Grey Moon
by tane on Jan.30, 2010, under Photography
The moon has been particularly big and round these past couple of nights, hanging low in the sky… and I couldn’t left tonight go by without trying to capture one more moon shot.
Crowned Crane

Here’s a headshot of a Crowned Crane… the same crowned crane in fact from my previous Tim-Flach inspired image.

I decided to experiment with some high contrast black and white on this shot.
I hope you like the effect?
Giraffe (B&W)

Another Black and White shot from my recent zoo trip.
Bird B&W (Tim Flach-inspired)

If you aren’t familiar with Tim Flach’s work, there’s quite a bit out there if you google it, or check
Turkey Face
by tane on Jan.21, 2010, under Photography
With a face only a mother could love, this Turkey surprised me by being a complete camera tart – he / she just couldn’t get enough, posing like a pro in the sunlight.
Either that, or it was really annoyed and trying to see me off.
Either way I got quite a few portrait shots of this interesting bird.
Tiger, Tiger Burning Bright
by tane on Jan.19, 2010, under Photography
This is one of the tiger cubs, born last February at Paignton Zoo.
Pink Flamingo
by tane on Jan.18, 2010, under Photography
Another shot from my recent zoo trip, this time of a flamingo having a good scratch around the feathers.
I opted for a tight crop on this one, mainly because it’s against my initial instinct, and I’m trying to experiment with different crops n’ such…
…does it work for you?
