Easter at the Zoo
The other day was a nice day our warmest of the season thus far and for a change it was not raining, so I headed out mid Morning to Buttonwood Park.
I parked by the zoo and decided to go in and check it out.
In the end I didnt stay there long for two reasons.
Firstly I seemed to go there when all the animals were having a nap and mostly out of sight
and secondly being such a nice day many parents had decided to take there young children to the zoo, was nice to see the kids and parents having fun at the zoo, the carousel and train were very popular that day I must say.
But I didnt take any cshots of those with kids on, as I am not as young as I used to be and am sure there would have bene a good chance of strange looks, or being accused of being a dirty old man taking photos of children, so I looked for other things to take photos of
and one thing the kids were also loving checking out other than the animals and rides was the fun Easter decorations they had out on display and thats what I will share today
Starting with this colorful character
Sony A7iv 38mm F5.6 1/320 Sec ISO 100
Sony A7iv 39mm F5.6 1/320 Sec ISO 100
and more cute decorations, perhaps i have boosted the colors a bit much in these shots but thats how my mood was when I edited these earlier
Sony A7iv 33mm F5.6 1/125 Sec ISO 160
Sony A7iv 35mm F5.6 1/400 Sec ISO 100
Sony A7iv 75mm F5.6 1/640 Sec ISO 100
then I left the zoo and walked around the park, looking for signs of spring and will get to the rets of hte walk at some stage
