I'm thinking I might be road tripping to Colorado soon. I need to get out of Ontario. My dad is headed back to CO soon too, so I'll have a place to stay and explore from there.

Reasonably close, but that's a 500mm lens on a 1.6X crop sensor, so he's probably 30-ft up and I'm 40-ft from the tree. In fact, after a 20-min wait, I decided to get closer and that spooked it.

I know that you said, but I've forgotten, where is your dad's place. If it's anywhere near Denver we could go shooting together and you could experience my M3 shooting blind.

Nice shots Cooh23, but I think that I like the first best.

Is the last a crop, or is that with a super-tele?

UdubBadger · 02-19-2012, 09:16 AM

1st shot is best of 3 but I'd prefer more sky in it and a 1/3rd frame ratio chop on the trees

His place is in Ft. Collins. Not far from you. I would definitely got for the chance to watch you shoot. I love learning.

And as long as your tires are better then the ones I have on my 1 series, I'm in

I don't think my tires can handle my torque when the chip is engaged. I've gotten wheel spin in 3rd entering an onramp... hooray for traction control when you aren't paying attention!!!

I'd probably work my way over to the dunes and (I think it's) Gods Garden as well.

I bought a small pot of tulips for the GF on Valentine's day and liked the way the light hit them on the dining room table.

Cool, just like an old Tulip shot of mine, back lit natural light.
