Love the vulture (?) and the egret refelctions especially.
Good luck on your surgery. I had a double hernia a few years ago. Kinda hard to get up the first couple of days, but if you force yourself to do what the docs order for loosening it up, you'll be happy. It's amazing how much energy it takes too recover from surgery - so don't overdo it!
Hi Sid,
Glad you liked the shots. I had an earlier hernia surgery back in 2001 and the doc said two weeks recovery. I said "Ha! I'll be on my feet in a few days!". The doc was right. I'm a tad wiser now.

As always Harry Pristine work excellent series
Of course you threw in NH just to get me, no Osprey I guess you wanted to be kind
Listen since you'll be laid up, did you FedEX that lens to me yet
No I have not found one YET!! but I did narrow an area down where they hunt, so here's hoping I got some to show ya when your back up and kicking, which I know will be soon!!!
Hey Ben,
I didn't have as much time this AM due to my need to get the x-rays done. I had to leave just as the ospreys were coming in to start their daily hunt. I get you a few ospreys in a couple of weeks. Until then here's a link for you
I would send you the lens but I like you too much. It weighs 7+ pounds. How did you think I got the hernia in the first place?

Nice stuff as always Harry. Hope the surgery goes well. Take 'er easy and don't push your body past what it's ready for (this is advice I always seem to ignore - especially with the constant prodding of my wife :poke )
Thaks Phil. I leaned from my first surgery in 2001 not to go too fast. I'm going to take my time with this one.

Well I hope it goes as good as it can Harry, so you can get back to taking great pics like these. Take your time we'll try and behave while your gone...:D

Thanks AJ. Just keep an eye on Andy while I'm down. If he gets out of line smack him down for me.

Harry, A speedy recovery to you!
Get the rest you need and deserve so much.....

Thanks Troy.

The worst part will be laying there not able to move much
and eyeing all that camera equipment in the other corner.
Worst yet, ya doc is going to limit ya to only carrying a small P & S for a couple of months.
Take care
AL
EDit: Oh my gosh! I forget to mention that the photos were great.
Thanks Alan but I sure hope you are wrong about that couple of months. I may have to hire a lens bearer.

Thanks Shay, I'm glad you enjoyed the shots. I'm optimistic about being able to make it to Dgrin II. It will be a pleasure to meet you but what's this about A beer? Beer is never a singular for me. [/QUOTE]
Apologies H. We will sit down at ruby's inn at bryce canyon and drink a barrel of beer each.
Luck with the op Harry. Hope it wasn't the 500 that caused the hernia!

Thanks Alan. Te hernia predates the 500mm. I got it while still in NYC, porbbaly from carrying Andy.

I'm fairly new to the forum and see your excellent posts all over the place. Just want to wish you all the best with your surgery. Will look forward to seeing your post-op work soon.

Thank you for your good wishes. I'm kind of stiff and sore right now but I should be back shooting pretty soon.

Best of luck with the surgery. Please pass on the op pics ..though. You know...if you wouldn't have carried so much camera equipment in your bag......that surgery might not have been needed.

Thanks for the kind comments and the good wishes. The surgery went off great and I'm feeling a lot better than I thought I would.
Actually I don't lug that much equipment on my person. Most of my locations are accessible by car and everything is in the car and I only tote the camera body, lens and tripod.

Maybe you can find a camera mount for one of those walkers. You know, wheels in the
front tennis balls in the back.
Great to hear you doing fine. I had a disk removed two ago so I know what you're going though.
Take care, you'll be back buggin' everyone with your beautiful pitcas in no time.

I'm considering getting a rascal and making it a mobile shooting station.
I've been lucky with my back, it just seems that the rest of my body is falling apart.
