    On Flickr, look above your picture, click on share, then Grab the HTML/BBCode, and hit the radio button for BBCode. ; Medium 800 displays best 'round these here parts.

    I have a lot more pics but they have not had any processing on them. ; Today was my first use of Lightroom (loving it) and yesterday was my first real outing with the G12. ; Made plenty of mistakes along the way but got some shots I am very happy with (considering I was a total photographic virgin 2-3 months ago).

    Is Flickr Visa/Mastercard safe in your opinions? ; I want to upgrade as I hate seeing my pics stay low res.

    Lol, there is a reason for it. ; The lions were all out in the drive through area of the park and there were strict rules in this area to not open windows of your car (not hard to figure out why). ; Was catching a lot of glare off windows for a lot of pictures of them. ; When I did get a clear shot the only male in the group decided that he would like to take a stab at increasing the population of his pride (if you take my meaning :) ). ; The next batch will contain some shots of the lionesses.

    I really like that first one with the giraffes all sitting down looking the same way. ; And that last one, very cool close up! ; Looking forward to the lionesses.

    Sounds much like our 'Lion Country Safari' park which opened a few years before yours. ; I had to Google it to find out what 'African Lion Safari' was! ; Nice shots, and looks like a neat park to visit. ; I haven't been to our drive-through park in almost a decade...and it's only 40 minutes away.

    I wonder though - what do they do with all of the tropical African animals during the Canadian winters!!?? ; Down here, the climate rarely gets too different from the animals' homeland, so they don't have to take any special care, but I'd think African animals might just have a heart attack and keel over when they experience the first taste of a Canada winter. ; ;)

    That would definitely be a good reason to not have photos of the lions... Great shots of all the other animals though..

    Hope to have more pics posted soon. ; Experienced an unfortunate complete OS loss a few days back and lost my work drive. ; Should have my pics back on the system and lightroom soon so I can bring you the Disney certified lion experience :)
