On our 2nd day out we ran across a couple of Big Horns. I had hoped we see some on the trip, but I guess that my planning left a bit to be desired. I had a real dillema of what lenses to take that would fit in my Pelican case. When it came to tele lenses, I opted for the 400 instead of the 70-200, reasoning that if I needed to shoot some wildlife, I would want the reach. I used used the 400 this one time, and we were sooooo close to these Big Horns that I would have been better served with the 70-200. Go figure! When we were right on top of them I stopped own the 400 to f/7.1 for more DOF because we were so close. I almost never stop that lens down. FWIW, the 4th Big Horn image was taken with my 50mm lens.
As for the Desert Spiny Lizard at the end, it would have been nice if I had been able to pack my Macro lens, but alas, I had to keep things minimal. My 15-30 zoom does allow me to focus close though so I was able to get the critter reasonably sized. He didn't seem too jittery fortunately and let me get fairly close. I'd love some suggestions on how to crop this image. What you see here is full frame.
Anyhow, here are the images. I hope you like them, and of course I'm always open to comments and especially suggestions. Please excuse the slow server
Enjoy!
