First photo post!!!

So this is my first official post of photos. And I'm kind of excited. Recently I bought myself a Nikon D5000. I'm not big on digital photography but it seems almost impossible to make it in the photography world today without a DSLR. These are a few of the first photos I took with my camera at the Philadelphia Zoo on August 2nd 2010. I'm still learning all of it's little tricks and such but these photos were taken with a Nikkor 55-200mm VR zoom lens which is a pretty decent beginners lens. Hopefully I'll be able to work up enough money to buy a fancier lens but for now this is what I have so enjoy!!
