Pronghorns, Bison, an Eagle & Cranes oh my!
Been shooting more lately. Here’s a pretty random assortment, Bison at spanish peak, some birds in our hood, 2 landscapes, my daughter, some sandhill cranes at ennis as well as some pronghorns, then a bald eagle munching on something with feathers on the drive home one night!

Sony 200-600mm review
I finally picked up a sony 200-600mm. Since moving to Montana and this lens getting announced I’ve felt like it’s the lens for wildlife photography. I’ve been considering one for a long time but finally bit the bullet, sold the 100-400 and got one! I didn’t own them both at the same time so I…

Long Lens Fun!
I was invited to actually surf today. Instead I took the camera along and had some fun but stayed warm and dry! I’m working on a Sony 200-600mm review but figured I’d share 4 images from today. I’ve got a ton more surging images to edit but figured I’d get one done tonight. Enjoy.

Really Right Stuff Multiclamp
The really right stuff multiclamp is one of those accessories you don’t realize you need, but once you own one it gets used a lot more than you thought it would. We’ve all been there. Some super scenic landscape location, but with a railing telling you not to get any closer. You set your tripod…
