Both very nice shots guys. Last night in a nod to my own heritage, it was a tumbler of Tullamore D.E.W. for me

That being said the most recent RX-7 shot is in Explore right now. It's in 6 groups. So we at least know 6 groups is not too many. I'm no were near 44 and it's been a year or more since I've had one in explore.

Great shot. I really love how the grayish snowy background makes your pooch pop in the photo!

Congrats on the Explore.

Ed, great harrier shot. I haven't gotten a good shot of one in months.

Thanks Dave. I got several even better than that yesterday that I still need to process. I had a pretty good outing up to the NWR's. I think I feel a cold coming on this Friday to head out to the other two that are south of here

The fastest bird (actually fastest animal period) in the world takes a brake. From a different angle you could see the goose down in its talons showing the remnants of a recent meal

The original Targa was a super car for me. Take off the roof and it felt like you were in a full convertible.

Geese flying out... by David Stephens, on Flickr

Mik3ymomo · 12-07-2015, 07:41 AM

You guys make me want to spend money on some expensive supertelephotos and get out and shoot some nature.

As much as I shoot cars, my real passion is landscape and wildlife. The car thing is just 2 hobbies crossing paths and now I've inherited the duties of club Photographer by my friends.

You'll still see us post a car every so often. Also, I'm ex-official photographer for a couple of my bands and some things at church.

I think I remember that you have a 70-200mm f/2.8. That's well suited for mammals, particularly with the EF 1.4x and 2.0x TC-III attached. Of course, your primes are really well suited to landscape.

I run into lots and lots of photographers with the 100-400mm as their go-to lens. The Nikon guys are all slobbering over the new 200-500mm which is priced affordable and can be hand held easily.

A really fabulous peregrine shot Ed.

Thanks Alan. Though not uncommon around here, it's still a rare opportunity to get that close to one.

ISO 6400, after sundown.

Where'd that doe go? Two bucks pause their sparring to look around for the doe:
