Russ (Riddim-Maker), and I had our turn at Bolsa on Tuesday for a long, but fun day shooting Terns, Pelicans, and others. Without the usual puns, which I'll leave up to you folks, here are some of the results.


Here I come.......Splish

    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!"

    Thank you Erich, I have always shot with an 80-200, and enjoyed some nice shots. I have a 300 now, but I think the 200 would be a better choice for the Terns hitting the water. Next time I will find out. :): :): :):

    Thanks, we sure did Harry, a long day, but worth ever minute. Thanks also for the Ron DVD endorsement; I'm thinking about buying, since you guys set the bar so high, the rest of us need all the help available just to get into the neighborhood. :): :): :):
