Great pics you got...and a great reminder for me.

When hunting in Africa a couple years ago, my 16 year old daughter came up with that idea and we photographed some Impala rams fighting over a female using my pocket digital and some 10X Swarovski's. I was surprised how well it worked and got some great pics from several hundred yards away.

Enjoy your stay in North America!

Man that lead cow looks tasty! Good to see they're wintering well in your neck of the woods.

How did you get everything so centered? Usually when I try that I get a big black shadow across the edges.

Great pics! Several years ago I found that the lense on my pocket digital fit exactly inside my Swarovski 10x42's. Great trick!

razorsharptokill- i think a big exit pupil is the reason for no black edges
