Arapaima at Omaha's Henry Doorly Zoo

[skerzfan]

Took a few pics yesterday of the Arapaima gigas at the Henry Doorly Zoo Lied Jungle exhibit. For those of you that haven't been there, this is one small part of the Jungle. It's a shame this exhibit doesn't have eye level viewing.

I promise that next time I go I'll have a polarising filter to knock down the glare!

Pics to follow. This will be my first attempt at posting photos here....

I apologise for the quality. The vantage point and glare made it difficult.

I think I have the hang of it, so I might as well post some more. Should of had a load warning.

That arowana swimming by is all of 2 foot +. I included a shot to show the layout of the exhibit.

Thanks for all the comments.

I've got a few more shots yet. And I took a little video as well. I started a thread in the Video Lounge.
