Hello Folks,

A photographer and myself were shooting various birds at a show. I kinda noticed a few days later, after looking over some of the shots, this particular photographer got really good pictures of a birds Anus.... lol :shock:

Apparently your position to the subject is everything..... :D

Birds fly...so, they could be at any place and at any angle at any time. Even from your position, you may have had the same angle while taking pictures. Plus, in the picture you posted, his camera angle and the bird do not match up. It seems like the bird is way over to his left and that he is taking a picture of something else.

Hey......... it that picture of the photograper you? Are you sure, because you sure are getting defensive...... :oops:

Seriously though, this is all in fun, and just for a laugh. Nothing more. I saw this picture the other day, and thought about how I could tell a story about it. A story which could be a little funny, but not offending.

Looks like Artyman got the spirit in which it was posted.

That's a crowned crane, a very large bird, so definitely not to the photographer's left.

I see you were in Orlando :). Did they pull someone out of the audience to take a pic of the owl flying right at them? I got picked last month and got to go on stage for that shot.

Was this the bird show at Disney's Animal Kingdom? The attraction is small enough that you don't have to get very close with a 70-200, although people get in the way and standing is rude. Next time I'm over there, I'd like to vie for a spot up front.
