    Welcome to dgrin John. You seem to have introduced a subject that we have little of on dgrin - snikes!!! Cool pictures, and very interesting, but kind a brave, or crazy, or both, maybe???

    John, how about filling out your public profile so we know a little more about you and your equipment.

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    Heh... hope so. If not, what's the appropriate filter for protecting lenses from snakebites, UV or skylight? headscratch.gif

    What a warm welcome
    Thanks for all the kind words and approval of what most find a somewhat nerve rattling subject (no pun intended).

    Pathfinder, I will most definately fill out more of my personal pro as soon as I have some time but unfortunately I am at work. But just so you know I shoot an 828.

    Harry, no tele-extender just a little bit of luck and a lack of brain. Seriously, you would be suprised and how placid some of my subjects can be, plus the swivel body is a great little helper.

    Thanks to all rest,

    John Slone
