<p>Michael Smith is on vacation at the present time, but he did forward these photos (5) to me and asked me to post them with the following comment. "All shot with my T70, 50/f1.8 S.C. on expired Fuji Pro 400".</p><div></div>

<p>I thought I would give my super tele a workout at the zoo a couple of weeks ago. No sooner had I paid my admission, it started to rain. After about 45 minutes it was raining lions and dingos and I had to abort. But I did manage to get a few shots in. The first three are shot with the FD 400mm f/4.5 SCC wide open on a monopod and the last is with the Kiron 105mm f/2.8 macro lens at f/5.6 and Canon T299 flash. All are with the T90 using Kodak Portra 400VC. The Kodak rep, at a camera show, gave me a few rolls to try out and I thought an overcast day might be a good time to try it. </p>

<p>I like your cheetah, Louis. This, OTOH, is a church door (Temple Church, to be precise, of Da Vinci Code fame).</p>

<p>Fantastic pics as always Louis. That monkey looks like an interesting fellow!<br>

James - cool church door! Did you use a tilt-shift lens?</p>

<p>Kayam - yup - and thanks. My first purchase from KEH: I was just trying it out. </p>

<p>Great pictures, one and all ! Here are a few snaps from last month.</p>
