I don’t get out into the woods as often as I’d like, but fairly often still. I’ve done a fair bit of shooting late spring/summer/early fall, and have a few images of which I’m fond, exclusively landscape. The last few times, after leaf fall, there has been almost no wildlife. I recall hearing grouse drumming off in the distance on one hike, and that’s been about it. But these have been with a group, which is always on the move, with pretty constant talking. Several times, hiking in the Smokies by myself, I’ve encountered bear, a few times relatively up close. But that was before I started carrying my camera. What’s the secret of wildlife? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Eric Weir Decatur, GA USA [email protected] “...we are a form of invitation to others and to otherness..." - David Whyte -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
