Hi Y'all,

I've had it!!!!! :pissed Every day I go out some of my best shots are of my subjects posterior as they flee the scene. Can I use these fine shots? Noooo!!!! Why not, because some crtitics have decided butt shots have no value.

Its time to fight back. Why should our butt shots (and we all have them too) go unappreciated.

Here's your chance now to display all those butt shots (within the bounds of our questionable taste) hiding out in the dark recesses of your respective hard drives.

I'll start with a jim dandy shot of a caracara's butt.

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!"

    Oh man do I have butt shots! I am glad to know I am not the only one. Just yesterday I got the fine posterior of a red tail hawk!

    Well thanks Andy, I hope that's not the only shot I'm known for! And for the record I refuse to process this shot, only saved as jpg. I don't process c**p!

    Harry I'm surprised it took you this long to post that shot. I think I got the exact same shot standing next to you.

    I was wondering how long it would take for Nick to get that shot up! Lol, talk about right place at the right time, or would that be the wrong place at the wrong time? ne_nau.gif

    The wrong place at the wrong time was at Green Cay. There was a cormorant sitting up on the rail of the walkway and it decided to lighten it's load right as an old lady was walking past it. I bet she hasn't moved that fast in a long time! rolleyes1.gif

    It is the purpose of life that each of us strives to become actually what he is potentially. We should be obsessed with stretching towards that goal through the world we inhabit.

    Well, I hate to compete with Nick's classic butt shot but this is one of the few butt shots I've got online. Taken during MI4.

    Nice curvature....
