Greetings from the Critique Club!

I'd say you did better than "here goes nothing!" I, for one, thought the phrasing was very good for this challenge - has an element of humor and matches your photograph - I could see this as an actual ad for the zoo. I'm also delighted that you took your mom to the zoo - challenges have a way of making us do things we probably wouldn't otherwise, don't they? And finally, congrats on the new toys! You did well with that lens, particularly with an extender - requires very fast shutter and a steady hand! You had good crispness in the focus and it was smart of you to wait for the cloud, as the exposure looks good. AND you got a great look from your subject.

The high ISO isn't all that readily apparent, but does show up a bit in the background. One option would be to selectively apply noise reduction on the background and see if that improves it a bit. Since it's advanced editing, you can create a duplicate layer, apply noise reduction, then erase it off any parts you don't like the effect on.

And congrats on a new 5th place entry on your profile page top row!
