lbuscher Offline Dedicated FM Upload & Sell: Off p.1 #1 · Snowy at sunset I was at West Dennis today, I got a bunch and stayed till sunset so I could get him on a post with the red sky as a BG but I had a 500 with a 2X on and then also tried stacking the TEs and they are not to bad but I have many to go through. At one point when I was returning from the beach where I first saw him I started up the board walk and 50 feet from me there he is, sitting on a post, but he gave me no time for a posed photo but I may have got a sensor on him as he put the air under his wings. All are FF but added some canvas on the last few to bring him off center. He ai a good 5 to 600 feet.

Lil Judd Offline Dedicated FM Upload & Sell: Off p.1 #6 · Snowy at sunset Lovely series Lou. I am so envious of you & the Snowies. My favorite owl. OH, what was your old film Nikon cameras? I just got my new Nikon FM. I had two when I was much younger & both got stolen. Neither my fault. Cause someone breaking into my apartment can hardly be considered my fault. I'm so excited. I'm bringing it out with me next time I go out with my 50mm AiS f/1.2 for some film shots. Now I need to buy a 20 or 24mm lens..... Lil Dec 06, 2008 at 11:06 PM

Karl Thanks Karl its reall something when you think about it, taking a photo of an object about 24 inches from this distance and you can make it out. Actually the original is quite clear at 100%. I ran it through that Topaz software. Lou Dec 07, 2008 at 12:46 AM

Now I need to buy a 20 or 24mm lens..... Lil Thanks Lil as for the nikon I started with the FujiS1Pro then on to the S2 Fuji and then I bouught 3 D70s when they first came out cause I liked them so much and they were really cheap so I figured it was better to throw one out after it was worn out or broke than the lose of a more expensive body. Please remember in those days I was hiking into some serious eagle territory and a slip was quite common so looseing a D70 was not alll that bad.I did later go for a D2H and later got really mad at Nikon when they dumped the price on the D2H from about $3800.00 to about $1850.00. I still have one D70 with less than about 8000 photos from it and several F2.8 lens. I like Nikon and I think its a better quality glass and camera body for ease of use. You have to have both to realize the difference. My old 300 2.8 has a tripod movement that feel like it turns on ball bearings and it is a 1986. I also have a like new D mount 80 to 200 2.8 with all the paper, boxs and cases that go with it. both of these lens have only 4 contcts but do AF but from the camera not in the lens like the newer VRG which I also have 2 of and one is the 70 to 200VRG which I bet I have not taken 400 photos with. Now aren't you glad you ask Lou Dec 07, 2008 at 01:03 AM

Tim Thanks Tim and my wagon is all packed, the coffee pot is set to turn on and my lunch is all made and if the weather is good I will be heading north to Duxbury as I hear of 4 snowys there and this time I packed my 800mm and 500mm. Don't know why as I get my best photos from the 1 to 400 and my 40D I'm on my own if I go, the old man and the snowy Lou Dec 07, 2008 at 02:45 AM

Ken Yeah Ken I know what you mean as I hate getting a tail photo but somebodys got to do it. I never was in snowy territory till now but I have tried here when I would visit my son but they are not like the osprey as they are on a vacation from the very cold. One thing about the tail photo did you notice the plumage and how far down the leg it goes? I read that the ones that don't live on the tundra don't get that same protection from the cold. This guy you can hardley see a talon for the feathers so I did get something from this tail photo. Lou Dec 07, 2008 at 02:54 AM
