Ok....a topic that may make for some fun discussion....If you could have 1 day to shoot any subject you choose, what or who would it be and why? Dream big, it could be anything from a landscape located anywhere in the world, an elusive wild animal or bird to a famous (or maybe not so famous) person you admire......even if they aren't alive anymore. Someone start us off :)

Tough to choose between a day photographing Warbirds or beautiful women in lingerie. Maybe I could combine the two?

Tutankhamun portrait session would be cool:

Although I dare say Ramses II would also be a great subject...  :p

some fairly old canon camera stuff, canon lenses, Manfrotto "thingy", and an M5, also an M6 that has had a 720nm filter bolted onto the sensor:

There are so many things on my personal shooting dream list that it is really hard to pick.

I do like the idea of shooting Grizzlies in Alaska and an African Safari are high on that list. I think the one I would do if I could right now is to shoot Orangutans in Borneo. I've followed their plight and they are so close to us that it rips at your heart to see their habitat being eroded away for growing of Palm oil.


My life is like one big RAW file....way too much post processing needed.

A coconut on a palm tree on a beach on an Hawaiian island. Haven't been yet and we haven't had a vacation in years! I'm sure we'd settle for the Disney castle as well.


It's my life and I'll get pissed if I want to.

Some good ideas thus far (although I don't quite get the Obama on the toilet ;) ) Honestly, I can't even come up with something yet. There are so many things I would love to have the opportunity to photograph that it's tough to pick one for me. I'll keep thinking and once I figure it out, I'll post it up. Until then, I would love to keep the ideas going :)

Canada Lynx chasing Snowshoe Hares would be tough to beat.


"Your" and "you're" are different words with completely different meanings - please use the correct one.
"They're", "their", and "there" are different words with completely different meanings - please use the correct one.
"Fare" and "fair" are different words with completely different meanings - please use the correct one. The proper expression is "moot point", NOT "mute point".

beautiful women in lingerie
but I'm a married guy so that is unlikely to happen (except if my beautiful wife lets me photograph her of course) :)

Aside from that it would be fun to be a paparazzi for a day and snap some celebs in their private moments and sell to tabloids. :lol:

No ropes between me and something exotic like a MiG-25 Foxbat or something.

That would be awesome.
