So close!

And so sharp! This makes those shots I took last weekend look bad!

Scared me a bit

when the big ram came at me thinking I was a threat to his harem!

Re: Talk about

The big one thought I was intervening in his.....ahem.....activities! He came at me and got within 8', before I thought it better to let him have exclusivity to his harem! I have some photos that I probably shouldn't post of this encounter though! F stop was critical to catch it all, along with a fast trigger finger!

Re: Talk about

Yeah, I didn't know they still had F-stops
on cameras. They're definitely involved in an activity other than eating. Have a nice day!
