Looking for recommendations experiences and/or comments on vendors who do this
A. I almost never chimp, but I review on the computer ‘soonly’.
I hike in Florida, often with groups. I take many photos ‘on the fly’, using Aperature priority, automatic ISO, and limit lowest shutter speed, so I don’t slow the group down. I usually review my photos when I get home, or the following day so that I can post them (my selection) on the group’s Meetup Page for the event
For groups offering photo tours, Roads Scholar (formerly known as Elder Hostel) has a pretty good reputation
Thank you. It was the best crop I could come up with from the larger photo. I appreciate your thoughts on what may contribute to it “working”
Decided that it's a keeper, and worth sharing.
Thanks for posting the links. I didn’t think to do so.
Today, Feb 27 at Amazon for 59.99
I don’t know if it is my MOST often photographed, but I have way too many photos, many of them very similar, of Great Blue Herons. They just stand still, almost posing, waiting for you to click the shutter.

Thank you. That's the helpful type feedback I was seeking. Do you have the regular or extra long? I'm 5'9, 155lbs. 80 yrs. old.

Interesting description of yourself. I am 5'10", weight 155 and turn 81 in August. I take mostly nature photos, but do very few strictly photo outings. I usually hike on various Florida trails, 6-9 miles, about three times a week. Usually only carry one camera, but have thought about two on occasion. Usually a Canon 80D with Tamron 16-300 zoom. I wear an Op/Tech single harness, but also carry an Op/Tech wrist strap in my pocket, for anytime I want to take it off the harness and have a bit more maneuverability (e.g. lie down for a ground level shot..not real easy, but do-able at my age). Op/Tech connectors make the switch very easy. Most of my Op/Tech stuff I have gotten thru Amazon, but have made other purchases from MT Shooter...a good guy to deal with.

Thanks for the information. I'm looking at dual sling and harness options. Not sure yet, but because of the weight of my two cameras with L lenses, I'm leaning towards the harness.

Please follow up and provide comments after you receive it, and have used it on a couple of outings.
thanks. Totally unplanned. Discovered after the fact...while reviewing old photos for deletion.
Looks almost like a black and white or sepia photo with a bit of colorization added, but I was standing deep in the shadows and the early morning sun was at a low enough angle to produce the effect.
Keep the photos where they are and make a collection for the 'second' set
Also, check out B&H Photo. They have a selection and an excellent service reputation.
The beautiful swallow-tails are building a nest in one of the adjacent pines.
Taken with Canon T1i and Canon 150-500 lens.
If you look closely, you can see the second set of eyes immediately above the bottom bird.
