Snapshot: Happy Zoo/Sad Zoo

Monday August 19, 2013

I don’t know what it is, but all my zoo photos always end up kinda sad. Here, trust me, I was all, “Ohmigodohmigod, the koala MOVED! Where’s my camera? I need this photo! Ugh, all these people in my way. I know Bean is sleeping in her stroller, but is there a way we could get her in this frame with the koala? Like, you could prop the stroller up a little bit and I’ll elbow everyone else out of the way?”

And now look, it’s a commentary on the koala’s plight, living in an artificial cell behind a sheet of plexiglass, for our simple voyeuristic amusement.

Darn it.
