Enough bashing me, I doubt a D800 is in the cards for the foreseeable future for me!! My D700's are doing all I ask of them, even if it is far and few between askings???

I did make a run to the Boston Zoo, prompted my a former colleague from my days shooting racing images. One of his regular haunts is the Los Angele's Zoo, and he has been getting some great images there. Unfortunately for me, the Boston Franklin Zoo, is nothing to bother with, more them a lot of bar's fences and wire mesh screens to discourage even snap shot photography.. The Zoo trip was perhaps my first Photo trip is well over a year or so, and I have little to show for the trip..

The attached image was shot through a 4" square Wire Fence and a heave gauge, wire chain-link fence hung a few feet behind it.. 400mm wide open (f4) does wonders but it's still more of a compromise then I was will to waste my time doing!!!
