I've been honing my skills with my new setup.  Camera bag, or as I call it, my workspace, up front.  My backpack, with all the other, less needed, but still important stuff, in the back. The other function of the backpack is to counter the weight of my workspace up front.  This is great, as I can remain balanced as I chase my son through the zoo.

Here's a picture of a rare site at the zoo.  A dump truck exhibit.  Eli was captivated by the dump truck moving around and doing it's thing.  It was moving dirt, as Eli would say.

While moving through the tiger exhibit, and chasing Eli, we saw the tigers moving about.  I had to switch from wide angle to telephoto as fast as I could to capture this fleeting moment.  Thanks to my workspace configuration, I was able to do so.

I really enjoy the eyes in this image.  Curious and not threatening.  I still want to get closer and tighter.  Until then, I'll just have to be patient.  Like a tiger.
