    Since there were Topics for Days 1 and 2, I thought I would add Day 3...

    Here are some of my Favorites from Animal Kingdom...

    Rainforest Froggy...

    Was trying to figure out the title of the photo until I actually followed the link and read the explanation. ; Very informative and funny.

    I guess I really should explain some of my more obscure captions. ; Elvis and Alfalfa are who I'm reminded of when I look at the hair on top of the giraffe's horns.

    This caption should need no explanation.

    Great shot Dennis!! ; Here are a few of mine from that day. ; I went to the 10:30 show since I know the actor that plays Crush and he was in the first 2 shows only. ; It was important for my mom to see him since she is friends with his mom, it was cool for her to see him. ; I only wish that I had a longer lens, I was shooting my 50mm 1.4 lens. ; Next time I may try my zoom and see what the ISO ends up being. ; Here are my 2 favorite ones

    Nice shots, John. ; It has to be extra nice when you know the CM.

    The 50mm is a great lens when you're in the front section. ; There are enough characters in the aisles that it can be better than a zoom in some locations.

    Meanwhile, on a two-week safari:

    Nice catch Dennis. ; They were lying down when I went through. ; At least they were visible and not hiding like the lions.

    indeed, last years pixelmania trek featured a fruit bat, a very flexible fruit bat, well let's just say he was having a fun day all by himself

    John, we are still commenting on that day! ; LOL! ; In addition to the bats, there was also this guy in the room that was as monotone as you can get, commenting that "it's only a fruit bat" and so on, but it was all hilarious.
