Geez! Go there and shoot away.
One of my best photo spots for birds is an effluvia basin of 8 small lakes here in Gilbert, Phoenix area, AZ. Fed from a nearby sewer plant; the lakes are designed to percolate water back into the ground. It is pure from the plant, runs continuously into the shallow lakes, keeping our shore birds fooled into thinking they aren't in the desert. Pinky, one of our favorite two year residents, is Pinky, our contented resident Roseate Spoonbill, a thousand miles from Gulf of Mexico, its proper family home.
Not everyone appreciates or even can see the beauty of shapes and forms. I can, I do, and I like it.
Cheapskate? Well, you have to pay for the good stuff. So do it!
The ability to see shapes, forms, patterns is a gift. You have it.
Me. In those day we used binoculars. The camera was our eye and memory.
We have the Turkey Buzzards (red heads) here in Arizona, USA, and one sometimes sail above me for a time, a bit troubling. I'm 81 and I figure they eye me as a prospect for a future menu item. Well, not yet, anyway! They are unconcerned about my big Canon camera and Sigma lens I point at them. Oh well.
I shoot daily with a Sigma 60-600 and Canon R 5. About 8 lbs. Use a Cotton Carrier, the best thing. I'm 81, No back problems, yet. Amazingly healthy! But I just purchased a doggy buggy for my gear and found that is wonderful, and even better than the Cotton Carrier, and may deliver me from future back problems.
Sure that is a Joshua tree?
We have one living in Gilbert, AZ, at the Riparian Reserve Lakes. Been here for about 2 years. Known as Rosy, here. A mighty long trek from the Gulf Coast!
I'm interested. My neglected web site is: boshellphotographics.com. Email: larry@boshellphotographics.com. I also post bird and landscape pictures weekly on FB. I have current high end Canon equipment. Let me know. Not Pro. Just avid photographer.
The Cotton Carrier has a safety strap that attaches to your camera. Forget the neck strap. I've had mine for about a year now, never dropped the camera. Best device there is for hauling a camera around.
I have the Sigma 60 - 600 that I use almost every day on my Canon R5 for bird and landscape and it is amazingly sharp with the Canon basic adapter. Heavy as h... but at 81 I don't use any pod or gimble.
