I wish I could have gotten closer.It's hard to get crystal pictures with the sun going down at 100 yards away. I'll know where to set up next time.

I used the Sigma 120-300 W/Canon 1.4TC. I sharpened a little, but I did not want to mess with it much. You are right, when the sun is down and you have the shuuter up high to stop motion it's tough. I think I did get this at 5.6 apeture. JSolie wrote: Nice picture, I like it. It's pretty tricky to get anything close to sharp when the sun is going down. What lens did you use?

I agree with Airedale about the size of the image but for those using Mozilla Firefox just Right-Click on the image and select "View Picture" and you'll be able to se the whole image in a siezx reduced for your scene.

Aug 27, 2005 20:31 | #10 Yeah I know, I have to figure out how to post these pictures right. If you guys could have the abilty to see what kind of property I have access to for whitetails, you would fall over. You know when you look in a fields and see 20 does,and maybe one buck. Well on this piece of property I counted 25 bucks and six does, I have a picture of a buck with a larger rack then this guy, but it was so dark that it really came out crappy. Their is no doubt I will get him earlier next time. This place is just to unreal. I hunted for 25 years and only wish I would have had access to a place like this when I hunted. Now that I gave up hunting for photography, I hit the Whitetail lottery. Go figure. I will have to get a wide angle of all these bucks together. You will all be in shock. My old hunting buddies are drooling. The guy will not let hunters on anymore b/c they just didn't respect the place. Now Enviromental conservation has to come and shoot them to keep the population down. Well, I hate to tell them it isn't reducing anything.

Secluded I was. I had every bug imaginable crawling all over me. I figured thats the price you have to pay to get shots of bucks like this. I went out and bought a blind today. Hopefully this will help with the bugs. Airedale1 wrote: I like that aspect. To my eye it conveys a feeling of the photographer being secluded.
