love the last snake one
and the mandrill
or whatever it's called - the colorful faced dude

your lions seem to be underexposed?
or maybe my monitor calibration is making everything look out of whack, hrmph

#2, #3 and #4 close shots are very nice. I like the natural lighting and composition.

Oic, thanks Mr Raptor84. Can't see identical holes on the green color snake(#6) & king cobra(#5). Common among snakes?

Nice pictures. Just my opinion. The cropping are too tight. Are you using 400mm prime? Having said that I like pic #2 though. Would be perfect if shifted slightly down.

Thanks Mr Jet Lim. Was using the low budget Sigma 70-300mm lens for long range. Comments noted. Felt the same for #2 pic, there was lettuce below.
