L.E. Shaw Photography

Woohoo, two post in two days, I'm smokin'! Anywho:

We’ve both lived in this area all of our lives, so we had pretty much taken the North Carolina zoo for granted. For several years, we went once or twice a year with our membership. When our love of photography began we began finding the beauty in details, and our love for the zoo was rekindled. In fact, we’ve been FOUR times already this year! First, we went to update our zoo pictures on Holly Bluff Campground’s website (www.hollybluffcampground.com ). Then, it was SO warm so early in the year we got a terrible case of spring fever and wanted to walk the zoo trails and just be outside. Next, we bought our new lense and had to try it out in the Aviary with it’s pretty flowers. At Easter, we had to go to see the animals enjoy their Easter eggs :) As soon Mother Nature decides to switch back to spring, we’ll go to take pictures of the new rhino and elephant habitats.

The zoo has always been a wonderful place, but it’s so much more fun to go now with our camera’s in-hand waiting for ‘picture moments’ to jump out of us. It’s a great place to work on funky new angles and post-processing, much better than weddings or portrait sessions! We have all of these really cool pictures from the zoo clogging up our computers and thought we’d share a few. J If you haven’t been in a while, GO! It’s always changing, and there’s a reason why we meet photogs from all over the world there….it’s an awesome way to spend a sunny day!
