What: More Fun at the Zoo
When: Sun Feb 28, 2010
Time: 11AM
Where: Inside the main entrance
Bring: Anything you want.


As you know, I just got myself a 2X SP AF tele-converter so I'll need to do some testing 123 and practice on how to use it right. And since the zoo is my favourite place, I'll go again. If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to contact me.

This is tempting....however the day before is my parents' 50th anniversary party so I may not be in any shape. Might crawl in with the lions and sleep a bit. Does the TPMG have a "no photographer left behind policy"? I'd hate to wake up at the zoo after closing time...and just before feeding time :shock:

What's to practice? :D I have a new 1.4 teleconverter. Plug and play, no?

I will be working on Sunday until 11:00 am. It will still allow me to go downtown for the song lyric shoot in the afternoon anyway.

I'd like to do a fun at the zoo as my first TPMG event but it won't be this one. I have tickets to see Otello Sunday afternoon, my first opera.

I'm planning on doing a zoo trip later in the month of March..... I didn't get a membership last year, as I shot the crap out of it in 2008.
