Challenge: Free Study 2009-05 (Advanced Editing VII)
Camera: Canon EOS-1Ds Mark II
Lens: Canon EF 300mm f/4.0L IS USM
Location: Colchester Zoo
Date: May 20, 2009
Aperture: f5.6
ISO: 800
Shutter: 1/50th
Date Uploaded: May 24, 2009

 They just had a baby Ape born at Colchester zoo and I have been trying to get a semi-decent shot of the little bugger for ages.

Shot this at ISO800 through thick glass with my 300mm and the 1.4X f5.6/ 1/50th

I have no idea how this will do, I am submitting a few Ape shots recently but I am facinated by these great Apes, the more I visit them the more I love them, sorry if you are getting tierd of my Ape photos.
