Thanks TucsonCoyote, it appears the Nikon ML‑L3 only has a range of approx 16 feet, I am looking at something substantially longer, like 100 -200 metres ideally.

Thanks Terra Australis, at the moment no, I just want to sit there and fire the camera myself, however an external trigger like a light beam would be something I would be looking for at a later date.

I am puzzled regarding electronic triggers. My requirements are very simple, I love taking wildlife photography and I want some form of electronic remote firing of the shutter, I am not bothered about the flash at this stage, just firing the shutter of the camera in broad daylight.
I see flash sync triggers advertised, in my ignorance, do these triggers work without a flash i.e. just shoot the camera shutter remotely for me or do I need to have a flash connected and it must fire as well.
I have a Nikon D7100 and I was considering buying the Phottix Strato 2 Multi 5-in-1 trigger.
Would love to hear comments from you Hoggers out there.

Thank you everyone for your very kind comments, it was actually quite good to be an Englishman visiting the USA and photographing some Americana, I really enjoyed it.

From the Uk I visited my USA family in New Jersey and they took me out through to the Delaware Water Gap, spotted this pickup truck and processed the image in HDR.

Thank you for your comments, and go on, do it, if you get as much pleasure as I have out of creating them, then you are in for some good fun, enjoy.

These OOBs can take several minutes or indeed hours depending on the individuals ability with there preferred software package, and of course their creative mindset.

I would never use these in place of my 'normal' photographs, I tend to use my old discarded under/over exposed images with perhaps not too good composition in the original image to play around with.

Thanks for your kind comments

Thanks Angler,

Many many thanks for those exceptionally kind words.

Thank you very much

Thank you everyone for your amazing comments,

They are different and I agree, sometimes you have to look a little deeper at an image to see there is something a bit more there.

Thanks for your comment.

Thank you very much

I have created this OOB (Out Of Bounds) image from over/under exposed photos that have been hidden away on my hard drive.

I have found the creation of them has given me something to do in my spare time since I retired and also use old tired images that would not be used elsewhere.
