Thanks Dan, The Peony was in bloom next door and on a lark I went over and took some captures of it. We are planning on heading out to the zoo as soon as they open on Saturday as I want to get some more captures of the clouded leopard cubs.

The cassowary is a very unusual and interesting bird, and your image portrays it quite strongly. Somehow, however, I like the simplicity and symmetry of the peony more. Like you, I'm a bit intimidated by portrait photography. If you have an interest in that area, however, just jump in and do it, even if you don't have all the high end lighting gear. There is quite a bit you can do with available light, and if you experiment with it, you can develop your own portrait style, instead of trying to imitate the pros. Keep posting your work here and on the PPG. Working with our own images and hearing others' reactions to them helps us grow as photographers.
