I once saw a great horned on top of a phone pole in the distance and clicked.. then got my long lense out and crept around the back of the car and slowly approached - noting that the owl had not moved.... Closer and closer I tiptoed... finally was able to see it clearly and discovered it was a fake - which was why it had not moved. :( ann > > -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
