For the first weekend of the new year, I decided to visit the zoo in Atlanta. It was a little overcast with sometimes rain and sometimes sprinkles making for an interesting photographic challenge. All I had for support was my monopod which definitely helped, but the tripod would have been much better. I managed to see the pandas, a couple of fuzzy pigs, and a giraffe taking cover from the rain. The silverback area was excellent. A couple of the youngsters were at the window while an adult has his back to the window most of the time. Click here for the photographs on the web page.
