Probably one of my favorite pic's with game and trad gear, an Aussie fox I took a couple of years back, shame the pic is a bit gory.

Cheers
 


 PIC TOO BIG....No larger than 640 pxl wide please

OK , tried resizing and have edited, deleted and added this resized  one of the original, how does this one fit in, bit unsure on the sizing thing.  Cheers

I don't know much about lenses.....

But, I can tell you to watch out for anything blocking the view....saplings, grass, leaves etc. Watch for the sun spots on you, your animal, and the ground around....try to get all sun or all shade...half and half don't look good.

And get low for the pic....and get lots of shots from several angles.  

It might take 10 pics to get that perfect one.....but that perfect one will be special.

I have taken bigger deer but my best to me is my avatar.  It isn't the size of the animal that counts.

My daughter is 16 now.

Some set ups I have done with the selftimer on my favourite game animals. And I guess these are some of my favourite pics.

I am not a photographers you know what, but there is nothing I dislike more than a photo of downed game where no time or effort has been put into setting the animal up for the shot or to get the camera in a half decent position for a self timed shot if hunting solo. If you shoot something the night before and don't recover till the next day, fair enough, but if it is a fresh kill then spending a bit of time setting the animal up makes for a far better photo.
I like to try and set them up so you can see the horns, tusks or antlers of the animal.










Fox and bow only.

And a goat.

No game killed on this Colorado hunt but just wanted to post the picture because it reflects the spirit and feel of elk camp even if no game is taken.
