Hi,
I just joined this forum. During the past three years I have taken 100,000+ wildlife photos, starting out with a Sony H5 + 1.7x, and then moving to a Canon 400D + 400mm L f/5.6, and then upgrading my camera body to a Canon 50D. I still use the 400D with other lenses for travel and special applications.
I am the official photographer and the senior birding editor for the Rockfish Valley Trail, part of the Thomas Jefferson Loop of the Virginia Birding and Wildlife Trail system. I am the author of A Photographic Guide to the Birds of Wintergreen. The Wintergreen area is the 15-mile long Rockfish River Valley and the surrounding mountains in Nelson County, Virginia, located about 30 miles southwest of Charlottesville. This area includes the Wintergreen Resort community, the Rockfish Valley Trail, the Rockfish Gap Hawk Watch, and the northern end of the Blue Ridge Parkway. Reliable birders have documented more than 200 species of birds in the area.
Feel free to visit my web site, www.symbolicmessengers.com, and take a look at some of my photos. All of the wildlife photos with filenames ending in Cxxxx are 400D shots, those ending in Dxxxx are 50D shots, and there are a still a few H5 shots on the site.
Cheers,
Marshall Faintich
