Hi Luc! This is a superb album as usual! Beautifully photographed and captioned with your great sense of humor! Your closeups are fantastic:-)))) A huge well done! I am so far behind on WS and I apologize for not getting here sooner. My husband has had foot surgery and our sweet Petie pup (13 years old) has cancer. I'm not letting Petie go without a fight and have been doing research. Anyway, I hope you are well and ready for those long holiday hours. Take good care my friend and Happy Holidays to you, hope you had a great Thanksgiving! Jane

Hi Luc! Thanks for the sweet comments on our featured album today. It was a nice surprise for Bob's birthday today. :-)) I won't mention how old he is now!! Your zoo album is certainly worthy of a feature also and hopefully it will be featured soon. Our album is a year old today and our hits/downloads are stuck in My Photos not moving at all for several days at the moment, so it's a little on the bittersweet side to be featured under these circumstances, but if that baby oranguntan can put a smile on someone's face, that will be good. Hope you are feeling good and don't work too hard with the Christmas season approaching. All the best, my friend, Sharon

Bonjour Luc: quel riche manuel de zoologie! Et au lieu de présenter des photos statiques, il y a toujours de la vie dans les tiennes! Projeter ces vues dans une salle de classe de sci. nat. ferait l'émerveillement des élèves (et la fierté des professeurs!). Merci - les anciens ont également du plaisir à parcourir ces zoos, grâce à toi! - Merci aussi pour tes gentils commentaires dans notre album sur Ussat (24 oct.). Le déclin de cette station balnéaire est peut-être dû "à la mode": elle était trop ancienne (la plus ancienne des Pyrénées, et probablement au-delà). - Bon courage pour les journées "courtes" et froides à venir! Et meilleurs voeux pour ta santé! Cordialement: Kaethi et Henri.

Hi Luc! I received 3 email messages, but so far your message isn't showing up in the guestbook, but maybe it will eventually. That seems to happen frequently. Webshots has been having major problems for a few days again. Sorry you haven't been feeling well; I hope you're much better and ready to provide us with many albums of beautiful winter scenery from Canada! I was ill for a couple of weeks also, but am better now. I love the rhino photo "Charge"; you're just the best at getting the animals to pose for you. The Black Rhinos at the St. Louis Zoo are pretty old and bashful and they have this great big huge play yard complete with waterfalls, but they always stand close to the door to their inside living quarters and it's impossible to take their photos. Have a wonderful evening. Sharon (and Bob who will probably be napping in his chair soon!)

Hi Luc! You know how much I love to visit the zoo and so I thoroughly enjoyed your album. You look like you have made some very good friends and they are posing beautifully for you. So many great pictures and the captions are just perfect. The St. Louis Zoo is all excited about the arrival soon of a new baby Asian elephant due in November. Raja, the father, was born here at the zoo 13 years ago and now he's going to be a Daddy! Have a wonderful weekend. Sharon

Hi Luc, Great shots within your "Sunday at the Zoo", as I downloaded the Cheetah photo, he setting in the green grasses; I wanted to thank you for leaving your nice comments in my latest featured album, very much appreciated. I'll get back to your other albums when I finish up with all these thank you notes, I'm hurrying as fast as I can and seem to be going nowhere! Thanks again for visiting my site. Best regards from a wet coastal southern Oregon town. Ron

Great photographs, Luc! Animals and zoos are favorite subjects of mine. My architectural thesis involved a one year project designing a zoo for Cincinnati, Ohio. it was totally enjoyable and very interesting. I need to get back to checking out your albums. It's been a while since I have and I know that there are great new additions that I have not seen yet. Bill Cable (heyburn3)

Luc, "ôût" ça veut dire goût, tu t'en doute bien. Je viens de réaliser à mon grand plaisir que Webshots prend maintenant les accents français. Merveilleux! comme dirais Gérard D. l'interviewer préféré de notre premier ministre M. Paul Martin qui lui, l'appelle Monsieur Lafraque, Salut! Raynald

Hello Luc! I am so surprised that I have not commented before on this beautiful album of yours. This is truly a treat to the animal and bird lovers. Your shots are perfect, sometimes even showing curiosity and other emotions in the faces of the animals. I know how difficult it is to catch the right pose of the animals, even if they are in captivity. But, you have done extraordibarily well here and my thanks for sharing this wonderful album. Best wishes, Suresh

Dear Luc, I believe your trips to the various zoos were pleasant and also productive.You have some beautiful animal portraits for which I commend you, knowing how difficult it is to take photos of animals. The best among all is No.12, the polar bear, a quality shot!. I was also impressed by the opening shot, those very endearing eyes, as well as the following:#10/16/28/33/36 /53/58/59/63/65/78.I am always pleased and honoured by your visits to my page. Wish you all the very best! Yoshiyuki Tanaka

Bonjour Luc! Un zoo bien portant, un dimanche où l'on a en principe beaucoup de temps (pour réaliser des photos excellentes!), un choix d'animaux énorme, et en plus des bestioles qui ont le don, souvent, de prendre des attitides inhabituelles - quitte à satisfaire le photographe! Et avec lui tous tes amis qui sont ravis de voir cette collection! - Bon weekend, à bientôt (relativement: nous sommes à Genève les deux semaines à venir). Cordialement: Kaethi et Henri

Bonjour Luc. Great photos and great captions. All the sleepy animals must get sent to the zoos where I go. The only time I get to see more than there rear ends is when they are asleep. Thanks for sharing mate. Cheers Al..

Hi Luc! I've still been hoping that you will visit the zoo again! This album is so special. I bet you have been real busy or is it still cold up north? Thanks so much for your guestbook entry regarding Animal Expressions. Yes, you know how well we love to visit the animals at the zoo. I'm surprised they haven't put me in one of the cages after seeing me talking to the animals. :-)) Have a great day! Sharon

Hi Luc! Thanks for the guestbook entry on Many Moods of Autumn! I still like to visit your zoo album. Bob and I went to the St. Louis Zoo today. Would you believe, I didn't even take a camera? Bob used mine and took a few shots, but it was so cloudy that there wasn't enough light. I was just relaxing and enjoying talking to the animals without holding a camera up to my eyes the whole day. It was really enjoyable. Hope you don't work too hard. Is Post Canada like the US Post Office? I can understand that you would really be super busy during the holiday season. Don't work too hard. Have a great evening. Sharon

Hi Luc! I just had to visit this album again! Your captions make me smile and the animals are so precious. Do you talk to the animals like I do? People tend to look at me like I'm a little crazy, but the animals just love to be talked to and will respond by posing better for a picture. :-))) Thanks for sharing. Have a great week. Sharon

Hey again Luc!! I always enjoy visiting a zoo album. Bob and I spent last Saturday, which was our 39th wedding anniversary, at the St. Louis Zoo just enjoying the day and even took a few pictures. LOL :-)))) The elephants and bears were the most entertaining that day. I guess they were glad it had cooled off from the summer heat. Have a great week. Hope to see more zoo visit albums from you soon. Sharon

Hey Luc! I really love your zoo album. Visiting the zoo is one of our favorite places to go in St. Louis. The animals always provide great entertainment for us; never the same expressions twice (except for the alligators!!!). Thanks for showing us your zoo and hope you get more pics from there soon. Bob

Bon, Ça c'tun zoo...avec des animaux qu'on s'attend de voir dans un zoo. Est-ce que c'est à Granby? En tout cas tes photos sont super belles avec les flamands roses, les zèbres, la girafe, les éléphants sans oublier wassup! et le futur candidat pour faire plein de paquets de bacon sur la 49! Très beau tour, les dirigeants du zoo de Québec devraient voir cette album et s'en inspirer pour réorienter leur collection d'animaux de cette façon. Passe une bonne fin de semaine! Michel

I love all the animals so I won't attempt to pick a favorite, but you really captured some great expressions and I can see the patience you took to catch the perfect shot! :-))) Thanks for sharing and have a wonderful weekend! Is this the Montreal zoo? Maybe we'll be lucky and you'll take more photos this weekend! Sharon
