-Olle (aka Smurph).

I'll be there.

Sorry, I'll be at the footy

Have put in my diary, would like to meet up with some other fellow photographers. So, hope to be there.

I really need to get a weekday job... Damnit

Ah well, ill get there one day....

Wont be able to join the group as we have our annual father-son weekend on the River just up the road at Murray Bridge..I'm in charge of taking pics so that at leas the dads have some sort of memories of the w/e events!

Still I am very keen to get back to Monarto soon and make use of my newly acquired membership.

I'm sure you'll have a great day.

cheers

Will definitely try to be there, but not promising.

Dropped in Saturday for Lunch while out that way flying at Pallamana Airfield, Murray Bridge. The Bus Tours into the Lions enclosure not ceasing, just pre-booking requirement. Zoo Loop tours will continue on a first in first served basis and some may miss out if not eneogh volunteers are rostered for enough bus & Tour duties. Sorry couldn't make it back out there again today to be with you all.
Regards,
Rob W

How did it go guys? There'd better be some brilliant pics with that group of people!

It was a good day. African Wild Dogs are cool. Had a good view of the giraffes as well.

Thanks for organising the day Fozzie.

Thanks for the day guys - I agree, the dogs are unreal. Not your Jennifer Hawkins look , but quite fascinating to watch. Some ok photos, still need to get in a bit more practice.

Handful of shots at http://outdoors.webshots.com/slideshow/570730803SYNpUA

Not the nicest looking animals! Shot just before they got to the food....



And just after...


(Shot with Fozzie's 300 2.8 + 1.4TC - thanks for the loan)

I really did not take a lot of shots yesterday:








Where is my evening meal?

It was a good day. Looks like everyone got the same shots as me.
Here's a few of mine:







The dogs appear to spend lots of time in the air. I've got lots of shots where they appear to be defying gravity.
