Trip to Twycross Zoo

Thought I would post a few pics to get opinions and advise on what I could improve on as im still a novice but still very keen with my canon 350d.

Anyway here are some photos from yesterday when to be honest the weather was terrible at times.

Thanks for some feedback, I havent done a great deal on after processing and as im trying to perfect my manual skills rather than any auto setting on the camera. I do get thou that one of the whole points of using digital is the aftertouch software you can do. I didnt use Photoshop as to be honest I just havent learnt enough to put into practice. It was hard to get most pics how I wanted as reflection off the glass on the cages was a nightmare to cope with and as stated althou the weather might not look it, rain was a pain on the day.

DRZ its funny as I quickly used in canon zoom browser the raw process and changed that same image to B&W and I do admit I get no where near the same level of detail please explain more or if you have any tips or guides you use for photoshop please tell.

Ive been using a SLR for only 4 months or so and I havent no-where near scratched the surface.
