Description
So... long time no see.
Must have been half a year since I last posted something. I haven't really taken any new photographs, so this one is a bit old. It was taken in London Zoo when I was with ~Roweidekhalicon , the same place I took Thrust .
Not much to say about this one, other than it's damn hard trying to crop it into a balanced square when parts are leaning in different directions.
Anyway, I hope you guys like it. Hopefully this one will be the first of many to come.

He looks so cuddly! (Bad idea to try and hug him...)

Yeah, who knows how he would react!

Oh jeez, this is so adorable! You've captured an absolutely lovely photo. The atmosphere is so warm and welcoming, it really suits the photo because that little guy looks beyond sweet and innocent. So beautiful!

The longer your stache is, the wiser you are, don't you know?
This little guy is so adorable ;_;
With these zoo shots, I always wonder - how far away were you from this guy, and how much of it was the zoom on your camera? They look so close and detailed, I'd never guess any zoom was used

Really?
I was pretty damn far away, I have to say. I was using the 100m f/2.8, so it was quite far.

I was going to attempt to write a critique, but that epic mustache distracted me.

You should see if your zoo has one!
Thank you!

That's quite a long way away.
Something to think about were you to go abroad, then!

read the description to the picture
You will understand then

Great shot, looks so natural. I have the Japanese version of the Canon t2i rebel, is yours newer than that, or simply better specced? Yours seems to take very good pictures. I've only got two lenses, though. One came with it, the other I bought which was for extra range, so not sure if I just need a better lens.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Hmm..
Mine is older, I think. The Canon T2i would be the 550D, right?
Mine is the 40D, which is obsolete now. I think there is a 60D out there already.
But 40D is slightly higher than 550D on the scale of 'professionalism', so a bit better specced, yes.
The lens can very much influence the shot. What lenses do you have?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, 550D it is.
The longer range is EF-S IS, 55-250mm. This seems to make pictures look a bit cloudy at times.
The one I got with it which seems to do better with quality is EF-S IS 18-55mm.
I got the additional one from eBay quite a while back now, though it was below £100 if I remember, so not sure if it was best for quality in the first place.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Ah, I see.
How do you mean cloudy? =/
That's a good range.
You should look at the f stop number for the quality, I think.
The best lenses are quite expensive.. 50mm 1.8 being the exception.

Some pictures look as though I've taken them in fog with it, it's less noticeable in really good or strong lighting, but still can see it.
I still have very little idea of what most photography things mean, despite being in to it more seriously the past few years. 
Yeah, damn those money grabbers, damn them!
