Got this one last week. Another scene crasher. As I was pressing the shutter
my wife says here comes a white one. I looked up and didn't see what see saw. Later in
postopp I found this.:rofl

    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!"

    Thanks Mike.
    As I was sitting there I looked to my right and about 35 yards
    away was a KF hovering. Unfortunately he zipped away
    while turning for a shot.:cry

    Thanks ben.
    He was circling at about 20K ducking 747's.rolleyes1.gifGota find his perch and get
    more reach, 340 ain't enough.:cry.
    The snake was about six feet in front of the DW, had to point it out. Right
    after that, another one swam by that had a head about two inches wide.
    Never seen one so big.

    Thanks Harry. Maybe next year if I retire I'll be out everyday stalking, birds
    of course.:D I was shooting towards the early sun and I kinda thought
    silhouette when I shot. If I exposed for the bird it would have been one
    big purple blob.rolleyes1.gif

    Thanks all for commenting.
