    Alfred, WOW! This is amazing:) I'm hoping to go to the Bosque this winter. I've got a 100-400 and hopefully will
    be able to puchase a wide angle lens before I go. Do you have any suggestions? Thanks:D (I don't have a boatload
    of money:()

    Cheryl,
    My suggestion for short trips is to rent lenses. Gives you a chance to play and see whether you really like the lens before buying or, when cash is short (when isn't it!) you can use your dream lens. There are several rental companies, I personally have used lensrental.com with great success.

    Like you want to get to Bosque one of these years - maybe in 2010 if I'm lucky!

    Deborah, thanks for the suggestion. I hadn't thought of renting:o Hopefully, that'll give me a little more money
    to stay an extra day or two:D I've heard they may not allow photographers in the future to get out of their vehicles so in case that's true I wanted to get there soon.

    Another vote for the Rental !!! At Bosque you want a 500 or better !!!
