A week in the Pasayten
« on: October 09, 2012, 12:05:39 AM »
Spent a week rambling around with some great folks the Pasayten in Sept.  Weather was crazy warm and no wind the whole week.  Heard quite a few shots.  One camp had 5 bucks, biggest was about 28" wide and heavy.  Here's a few pics.

People get offended at nothing at all. So, speak your mind and be unapologetic.

The further one goes into the wilderness, the greater the attraction of its lonely freedom.

Thank you - brings back many wonderful alpine hunt memories.
As long as we have the habitat, we can argue forever about who gets to kill what and when.  No habitat = no game.

Love the pictures!  I've been working on "starscape" pictures like that but haven't really gotten it down.  What camera/lens are you using and what settings?

Thanks!

Thanks!

For that shot I used a T3i with Canon 10-22mm lens at 10mm F3.5  ISO 3200.
Not sure on the exposure, I used "bulb".  I usually try to do those in 30 secs or less, but as you can see the stars are blurred a bit so it was somwhere between 30 and 45 secs.

They are fun, just gotta try different settings and see whatcha get!   :tup:
