This week’s theme is barns and/or animals. I kinda failed at both! There are a few barns around the neighborhood (which for me is a short driving distance) and there are animals associated with the barns but nothing interesting poked its head out while I was exploring. I even tried to be cute and did some indoor portrait images of Pokemon plushies but was not happy with the results (I need a better backdrop, lol).

So I am going to use some images I captured last weekend at the Rosamond Gifford Zoo in Syracuse, NY. I mentioned earlier in the week that the trip was not as fulfilling as I had hoped due to the weather but I did manage a few nice images of the animals in the indoor enclosures. These images are always challenging as I have to really increase the ISO to get my shutter speed up to what I need to capture a non-blurry image. Luckily for me Topaz Labs DeNoise does a really nice job cleaning up the results.
