When I point out this rabbit -- most could not see it - OK I did zoom the picture ------
BUT I said dont look for a rabbit- look for a WHITE spot in the brush then the Black eye

I have been on a "the tundra Buggy " tour. First understand the buggy is very large. the floor inside is about 6ft 4/or 6" above ground level - I am 6ft3" & could stand up straight with with ample head room.
What we were told. once out near the bear area - NO ONE OUTSIDE ., these bears have eaten for months & are simply awaiting the ice to freeze, to go back hunting seals, the show up in and around Churchill because the Churchill River ( fresh H20 ) enters the "BAY" at churchill & sense its is dumping fresh in to the salt bay it freezes before further North. I will add a couple images , 1 will be the inside of BUGGY, 1 is one of a lot of images
2nd image is a Rabbit - I saw several & kept pointing out the rabbit - must others just said they could not see it

regards

I thought the P-51 was too nicely restored for the paint not to be period correct. That is how 412943 a F-51D was painted and flown during the Korean War. https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:18th_Fighter-Bomber_Group_North_American_F-51D-20-NT_Mustang_44-12943_Chinhae_Airfield_South_Korea_1951.jpg


That is a GREAT news find...... NOW I have seen several , & realize that paint scheme is "period correct" !!

SonyDog this reminds of a small photo project I undertook during a Photography class in the mid 70's as a tech elective while studying engineering. my self made & professor approved assignment was to capture the muzzle blast of a 44 mag handgun, using a Minolta SRT 201 B&W, film as I recall asa400.... what was that tri x or plus x??
trust me it took ,during daytime, many many attempts. I mean several rolls of film, back to lab to find failure... try again .... repeat , repeat....
the final positive result was done by the following & we took 4 images
Photo done at Night, with out saying in a place (aka gravel pit)
aperture was "small" for DOF
shutter on "BULB"
we did use a small flash
focus was ... with out saying , manual accomplished using flashlight,
timing was as follows
shooter of gun ready , when you hear the shutter open or see flash ..fire gun
release shutter ,
move camera angle for next & re-do

Each photo came out .....
I wish I still had the images..... image captured flash one of which , we never realized.... gun was a revolver... so there wash flash or blast from 2 places..... head space between cylinder & barrel..... and at muzzle..... muzzle was about 2 feet long ....

good luck with your project

The entire area is pretty amazing- this was taken after taking off out of Pullman Moscow Regional airport ( KPUW ) I thought the crop beginning to show yellow showed the dune like hills of the area. I think the crop was Rape Seed for making canola oil

many thanks Brought back memories. Been Old Iron sides several times If you are a history buff... where did the masts, yardarms etc come from ? Where do the term "Kings Pine" come from ?
masts came from Maine .... actually at least one not farm from where O grew up

if you like a little history , an article describing masts & there sizes
