SaeedNew Addition To Our Animals - Dama Gazelles
We have added a few dama gazzels to our zoo.
They are much more beautifull in nature than in any photos I have seen.
Also, in the photos one would expect them to be smaller.

shakariSaeed,
That's a nice looking animal. What sort of height are they at the shoulder?

I actually took the photo through the fence!
I took the photo with a Nikon D300, with a Nikon 70-300mm VR lense.
It seems those lenses that have vibration resistance make life so much easier to take a decent photo.
