Title: Working closer.
Post by: Ricochet on March 09, 2009, 09:08:11 PM: Time to start some new photography threads. Here's a shot of CameraGuy working his mojo to get close enough to photograph some bulls with his 70-200. When its foggy, like it was that morning, getting close is the key to clear shots.

I'm thinking he was about 30-40 yards. Using that short lens he gets up close and personal with the critters. Sometimes he scares them off and lots of times he gets some great shots.

At least you got Shawn's good side. :chuckle:
