Description

Taken in Duisburg Zoo in Germany at March 4th 2007 at 15.12 hours. It was the first warm day of the season and the zoo was over-crowded. I spent a couple of hours watching the raccoons until they had settled down a bit. This raccoon had his head on the wooden block just dreaming away a bit until he saw something interesting and raised his head a bit. The aperture was F4, shutter speed was 1/400 and the picture was taken with Iso 200 with a -0.3 EV. The camera used for this picture was a Sony Cybershot DSC F717
