IMO the colors are weak, needs more depth of field.

I like the intent and I very much like the font and the way it was handled - very effective and evocative. The DOF works against it as a "post card", but as an image, it's great. I really like the way the author handled the odd lighting - very effective exposure. It does the job in evoking an interest in the zoo.

Nice composition.

I think that overall the image could use a little more depth of field and an eye could be much sharper.
