Birds of Eden Second Shoot, South Africa

Birds of Eden this time round was a much more enjoyable and less stressful experience.  Even at feeding time when I definitely felt i had become one of the birds getting so close and being involved with the squabbling for food!  Macaws wings are surprisingly large and strong!

Monkeyland Take Two, South Africa

Second shoot at monkey land, I definitely think that I have improved from the last time I went to this place.  Monkey’s are definitely not the easiest animals to photograph as they are moving fast in and out of patchy light and sometimes hiding high up in the trees!

Ostrich Riding and animal sanctuary

Riding an Ostrich was excellent fun, but nothing like riding a horse.  I think riding a horse is more comfortable!  The animal sanctuary was excellent and finally feel like the things I am learning here in the internship I am actually able to think about and put into practice when I want.

Monkey Land and Birds of Eden Shoot

Monkey World and Birds of Eden really tested my photo skills.  The animals were moving fast and most of the shots were either in low lighting or patchy light.  Having thought I captured nothing good, you can see here that some of them actually came out quite beautiful!  Enjoy looking.
