As a few of you know I recently hooked up with our own Cameraguy and Ricochet down in the middle of nowhere Oregon. It was a great time finding animals to take pictures of every day even though the light was crap most of the time. We saw a little bit of everything and this is a decent representative sample of what we saw. Thanks to my hosts and guides. Hopefully you will add a few pictures to the thread.

The coyote is definitely my favorite. That is a super cool sequence shot.. Looks like you had fun. Nice photos overall..

Awesome, as always. Great pictures - cool to see coyotes, pheasants and hawk (not to say that the bucks aren't really cool, as well - everyone likes seeing those!)

Thanks and keep them coming!

Great pics Pope, I will echo some of the sentiments above, the coyote sequence is amazing.

Very nice pope, really like the yote pictures.

Yeah, when we got bored we would go find coyotes and hawks. They were always a ways out there so there is a lot of crop in these photos but the action was great.

that coyote is pretty cool. i grew up in prineville, or and the high desert is a very cool place. i love going back down there to visit.

My Mom and step dad live in Bend, OR. I also love going down hunting fishing hiking etc etc. Oregon is a wonderfully diverse state with some amazingly wild places left in it.

Beautiful pictures.

Very cool! so sun all the time? Cold?
I must have missed it, when did you pick up a 600?

popeshawnpaul · « **Reply #9 on:** November 11, 2009, 12:22:38 PM »

Yeah, sun and bluebird skies every day. Bad for pictures. I didn't get a 600. I don't use that much lens most of the time so I rented one. I use something in the 400mm range most of the time. I like having that reach out in the open desert though.

Elkman · « **Reply #10 on:** November 11, 2009, 12:43:19 PM »

That's what I thought

, just checking. Nice to have the reach with a prime and TX.

Sean, had a really good time taking pics. on the refuge with you. The weather has really changed since you left, its overcast and spitting snow. Things should really start picking up in the next week or two. Elkman, I hope you can make it down. Things should really be heating up by the time you get here. Can't post any pictures right now that I took because my monitor is still screwed up, they look great on my monitor and lousy on others. Hopefully I'll get it fixed in the next day or so. Come on Ricochet, don't hold out.

KillerMiller · « **Reply #14 on:** November 11, 2009, 07:07:35 PM »

Great pics! The yote pics were cool.

saylean · « **Reply #15 on:** November 11, 2009, 08:04:45 PM »

The yote stuff is great...course...so are the bucks.

boneaddict · « **Reply #16 on:** November 12, 2009, 06:04:45 AM »

Sorry I couldn't swing it Pope, it would have been fun to meet up with you and to meet the boys down in the desert. Great pics, blue sky or not.

Ricochet · « **Reply #17 on:** November 12, 2009, 06:06:44 AM »

It was by far the most fun I ever had spending time with a lawyer.

It was great to meet you, Shawn, I hope we can do it again someday.

Skyvalhunter · « **Reply #18 on:** November 12, 2009, 06:09:46 AM »

You say that everytime

finnman · « **Reply #19 on:** November 12, 2009, 08:25:46 AM »

Would you stop it already! Sheesh! Everytime I see your pics I feel the need to get back down that way. It has been 5 years and 5 years too long. That is an awesome set of photos! Thanks for sharing them with us, it keeps the love alive!!!!

My images came out a little fuzzy and flat. I'll have to reprocess them. Nice pics Rico and it was good meeting you. We'll do it again.

Great pics.

cameraguy · « **Reply #22 on:** November 12, 2009, 10:58:14 PM »

My monitor is still screwed up

so the color may be off on these pics.

They look fairly decent on my monitor but on others monitors the color may be off.
Below are a few of the images that I took this last weekend with Brute, Ricochet and Pope.
