How come the first picture is the exact same as Slider's first picture of the same ram?

If you look closely it isn't quite the same.  We were standing right next to each other so they are pretty similar...

Meeting Pope at 4:30am to hike in and get some more pics of this big guy tomorrow.  We are packing lunch and plan on staying on him all day. We have 6 batteries, 34gigs of CF cards a 70-200 f/2.8 and a 600mm f/4 lens, plus a 1.4 extender, lets hope the weather cooperates.

The things that come to those who wait, may be the things left by those who got there first!

Do you think 32 gigs is enough?  That's only 2400 pictures...   ;)

Spent 8 hours behind the glass and hiking.  116 photos today.  Half are ewes.  Half are of a few rams.  One really big one...  I'll see if I can get a few pictures on here later when I get a few moments.

It's to bad they don't give out a Non Resident Tag in that Unit.  :(
