If anyone else would like one I can make them for $8 plus $130 shipping and handling.

I will be using it this weekend to take bluebird and assorted cutesy pootsy nature photos. Last year I used a plain green bedsheet with good results. This should really fool the little buggers.

But you dont have the camouflage lens barrel...

Anyway, just get a little stool in there and a cooler. No wait, a recliner and a fridge, and a TV, and A/C, and a bathroom.

I wonder if they make camo extension cords? lol.

I found that material at a local fabric store. They actually had quite a good selection of camo in various patterns, weights, and colors.

:) The last shot, you look like you're in a park. Imagine that scenario! :)

As soon as I saw the product and the price I was ready to pull out my wife's sewing machine. Then I saw your build price of $7 and had to laugh.

Looks good, but I'll take then lens in the first 2 pics instead, heck I might even pay the $139.95 if you take the hit for the shipping.:lol:

I forgot to ask, now that you've saved $132.95, how are you going to spend the money you saved?

Well, at least that's the logic I'm using on the money I saved by going to B&H for my gear. My wife, for some reason, just doesn't see it that way. "Honey, I saved more than $1500 by going to B&H. Now I can get that 24-70 lens! And when the $455 comes in from Canon's rebate, I'll get that L558R light meter!" She's fitting me for a straight-jacket.
