    Default Time to say hello

    I have been participating for quite some time here now....mostly silent, but I thought it might be nice to get a face to my person ;)
    To get the shots I want I do alot :)
    The side light is not ideal, but my buddy and I are more into birds than persons ;-)

    This is me shooting Royal Terns :)



    Here's the image I made from this position

    regarding the tripods.....this is how two of my former Gitzos ended :(
    On both of them the aluminum parts which hold the legs broke.

    I am trying to treat my current one a bit nicer ;-)

    @ Al, the video is just awesome :D

    Not embarrassing at all! And from what I remember you were quite friendly. :)

    I believe I spent half that morning on my stomach trying to shoot a green heron through the reeds to your right.

    All the best Jan!

    Hi Jan,
    I´ve visited your page some month before. You have great images.

    Bist du noch den ganzen Tag mit klitschnassen Klamotten gelaufen ;)
