FWIW - I was bummed @ GFM this year as the Cougar enclosure had a clear plastic barrier (2 to 3 feet high) added on top of the existing concrete & metal barrier making it to high too shoot over with my 600 on tripod/head combo - boo hoo.

Well done with the equipment you had with you. I think I had a 300mm when I was there and still felt it was a bit short for some shots within the enclosures. -- Bruce Monday, October 8, 2007, 6:17:56 AM, you wrote: DS> G'day All, DS> One from GFM '07.
