Oregon Zoo, Portland

Images from our recent trip to the zoo.


Zebra: Although it was a bright sunny day (bad for photographing), for this I ran it through the (free) Virtual Photographer plug-in Multiple times, each pass at a different brightness/contrast setting. Then masked them off to get the tones I wanted for each area.


Hippopotamasses: the title says it all. Similar editing as the zebra.


Baboon: the lighting was tricky and shooting through glass brings it's own troubles, but this is still my favorite shot of the day.
