In the opening statement of this thread, I left out my DUH moment....MEMPHIS ZOO. I have been to only
a half dozen zoos, but this zoo is the rival of all of them. Only Audubon Zoo in my experience can stand
with this great zoo. The exhibits are long on visual interest, with many close up opportunities, water features,
simulated scenes of far away lands. Outside of the Elephants whose enclosure seems to be mainly about
control over their movement, they are making huge strides in animal enclosures.
The Memphis Zoo spends a great deal of time and effort on OVERALL visual interest along the pathways
and inside exhibits on Flora. Here is a shot of both a great Day Lilly-type flower, with even the inclusion
of a bug, sadly redered a blur in this depth of field test and triumph, lol.
