Fog shot
« on: October 28, 2007, 01:43:23 AM »
I spotted this guy and another small 4 point and I was trying to get their pictures.  The fog was just too frickin thick.  I happened to glance to my right and her stood a 35 inch superbuck just barely visible in the fog.  A deer of multiple lifetimes.  He was intot he fog enough I couldn't get a focus on him.  I switched to manual and he disappeared.  I went after him and played tag with him inthe wet brush for quite some time, but never got a composed shot.   I came back and ran into a spike standing by my truck.  Apparantly there was a hot doe somewhere near.  This was last year.  This year I hope to get him on film.  I couldn't find his sheds, and I sure looked.  This is the medium 4.  A basket buck.

Same place yesterday, same fog.  This time it was a 6x6 elk.  He was just enough in the fog or something that I could see large antler moving but no animal.  He about gave me a coronary as I figured big carl was there.  He finally cleared enough that I figured out it was a big elk, but never stopped to pose for a shot.  Maybe next time.

I compress them alot in order to get  them on here easier, so that they download faster.  It really smucked this one up.  I just came back and looked and its not nearly as clear as the original.

There is snow there already?
The things that come to those who wait, may be the things left by those who got there first!

Just afer this pic a small buck came flying through right on her heals.  I can't remember if I have it on film or not.   No Rob, these are old pics, just sharing.  No snow yet, though I heard it was snowing where I am going elk hunting this week in MT.  Not sure if I am ready for that yet or not.
