Relaxing

This antelope was just sitting around and relaxed. I tried out some different angles to get a good shot of the antelope. What I liked here very much is playing with the focus and the dof.

 

I just found out some facts about the zoo in Frankfurt. It was founded in 1858 and is the second oldest in Germany. According to wikipedia, the zoo features over 5,000 animals of more than 600 species.

But in comparison to other zoos that I visited it is very small. You can walk through in a very short time. I remember the San Diego zoo that I visited last year which was more than three times as big as the one in Frankfurt. But I like it, that it is smaller. You can give yourself more time to watch those animals.

 

Have a great day everybody!

 

I wrote a Blogpost on my webpage with more images also. I wrote the article in German, but I think Google does a good job in translating now.
