That monkey has very beautiful fur! I didn't know there was such monkey. I love the panda and lion pictures as well.
Some of these pictures are cropped too much, like the zebra one. That one seems too narrow. Also, some of these pictures need better focusing and sharpness, especially the first two pictures.
Some of them have boring backgrounds. The last one (meekrat) is a good example of this. Compare it with the panda picture - the panda one is so much better because it has interesting background and the panda is eating bamboos.
Thanks for the excellent feedback. First shot was indeed slightly misfocused. But i looked again in 2nd shot. Even with 100% crop, it's tack sharp in the eyes and the area around it.
As for the Zebra.. it was actually actual size.. was not crop at all.

None of the shots there has had any post-processing. Showing it the way it was captured.
Again, i do appreciate the critique. I will try better to compose my shots (background and focus being top of my priorities).
@Undiscover- While i do hate seeing animals in captivity, Zoo Atlanta has done alot in animal conservation. And majority of the required funds are from the visitors themselves. Plus, really i cannot afford an exotic trip to African plains at this very moment.
Cheers,
John
