Lovely squirrels on Fuerteventura

It is time for some pictures from Hawaii, this time from a Zoo in Honolulu on Oahu and Pana`ewa Rainforest Zoo on The Big Island.

Here is my first attempt to shot a short video with the new EOS 5D mkII. I have no idea around video and editing so this was just for fun and to see how useful is the new video mode. I think that with practice you could get some really nice things on “tape”. The movie is downsized, however you can see it in larger resolution on this link.

…or Siberian Tiger. I was in Ljubljana ZOO today to check them out. I also wanted to play around with the new video mode on 5D mkII. I must say that the ISO performance on the new 5D is just stunning! All the photos were shot at ISO1600.

The name should say it all. The beach is located on Phi Phi Don island. I stopped at Monkey Beach when I was traveling around the islands. You must watch out because the monkeys can bite you. After you have fed the monkeys with bananas don’t be surprised if they jump on you wanting more food, trust me I have seen it. They are also very intelligent, they will take stuff out of your backpack if you leave it lying on the beach.

…I really like this shot…
