Sitting Pretty!

July 31, 2008 by Barrie Brewer

Copyright Â© 2007 Barrie Brewer, Nikon D50, 18-200VR, 1/1000s shutter, f5.6 I chose this chimpanzee from Disney’s Animal Kingdom as my Pic of the Week for mammal week. This was as close a shot as I could get with my 18-200mm telephoto lens. What I wouldn’t do for a 400mm lens at Animal Kingdom!

What sets a Disney themepark apart from the all the others is the attention to detail. Some details are little and some large. Some go unnoticed until pointed out or stumbled upon. The latter is what happened to me a couple of years ago. Thus I introduce you to this week’s Disney Pic of the … Continue reading "Disney Pic of the Week: Main Street RR Station Office"
