Just as I was about to take the photo the other baby stuck his head in , Sometimes the best camera is the one you have.

Behind The Lens

Location

I took this photo at the Toronto Zoo, As we went in we were told that the new baby was born. We went there and the mother was off in the corner, refusing to leave without a photo of the new baby, me an my best friend (Chuck Marchetti) waited and waited for the right time. Then the mother came ofer to the ligh and started to feed her baby, and we started snapping and then to my wonder another baby stuck its head in and as luck would have it I got the photo I was waiting for.

In my camera bag

Now, I've upgraded to Canon EOS 7D with Tamron AF70-300 mm F4/5.6 Canon 100mm macro and Canon Speedlite.

Feedback

Wow this is tough, just a lot of patience, I have the photo I want in my minds eye and wait for the right moment. It doesn't seem matter what camera, it's just the camera you have at the the moment. I have taken photos with Nikon Coolpix 900 and 950 Olympus 2100UZ , the heavy weight Olympus CAMEDIA E-10 THEN my biggest just was to Canon D10, which blew my mind, the canon 10D the Canon 20D and finally the Canon EOS 7D. I just LOVE photography and the instant feedback you get from digital photography (AND NO FILM) lets you imagination go wild.
