What a sight!!!!! Would love to have been shooting there. Thanks for sharing.

Then I wish you luck Sir ... but I might suggest that you not be too hard on yourself. I thought those were wonderful photos. I for one, have some shots that are far from technically perfect, but they are shots I like a lot. And I feel, there's always tomorrow & maybe the next time, I will have learned something that helps me make them better, even if only slightly. So I wish you luck in your search & I shall look forward to seeing what you capture. Be well.

Wow ... you had quite a day QD ... love these shots ... wish we had those critters roaming around in my backyard. Thanks for sharing.

That was worth waiting for ... nice job QD. That's quite a herd & looked like there were a couple of nice racks in the midst but that's a guess. Thanks for sharing.

Another amazing image ... nice job. Really like your work. Thanks for sharing.

Another great set ... does bring back some wonderful memories & the thought of going back. Thank you for sharing.

I would add a loose quote of a fellow Hog, who recently looked at my avatar & suggested (quite correctly IMHO), that there is very little in life that a dog's presence can't improve.

Agree with Curmudgeon ... those are all nice but the 1st one is the pick of the litter IMHO. Thanks for sharing.

Liked that image QD ... but now I'm waiting for when you do capture the Elk ... they're one of the most amazing animals, IMHO. Thanks for sharing.

I'm definitely jealous of you now Cindy ... do you want someone to lug your big lenses around for you? Those are amazing shots ... thanks for sharing them. Think I'd like to go there one day & the rut would be the time to do it.

An outstanding capture ... one that will look good on any wall. Thanks for sharing.

I second that comment ... I recently bought a Nest Gimbal (as did a fellow I often shoot with) based on the recommendations of fellow Hogs. I have to tell you, the price was right ... & that head is awesome & my friend agrees. They are very smooth, well built & priced right in my opinion. I'm hugely grateful for the advice here on UHH. With shipping, it was slightly over $300. You can contact MT Shooter at the store Store Website: https://www.cameracottage.com/

If you want to look at the Gimbal itself, go to this link: https://www.cameracottage.com/apps/webstore/products/show/6026071

PS: I use my Gimbal with Canon 100-400mm & an 800mm lenses ... my friend uses his with a Canon 100-400mm & a 500mm lens. So they handle large lenses very well.

Sounds like you raised some awesome kids. You’re a lucky guy.

It's hard to find good help!!!! ;)

I'm not a huge fan of cats, but it was a very funny video.
