I was driving home from work with my new Pentax Spotmatic and a 55mm on the front. I saw this herd of elk and stopped, ran along a railroad track until I got in line with the elk, snuck up the ten foot embankment and got these pics.
Elk herd just standing at a fence line.
Elk can read--sign says, "Closed to Entry Except by Permit."
Wait, here comes the rest. I thought, to myself, I have a 135mm and a 2x coupler that I wish I had with me. I bet that you can hardly see the elk in th pic. There are three big bulls in that herd. I go home, load up the camera with new lenses and go out to shoot pics. I got some nice pics of horses, cows, deer jumping a fence, some shots of family, and even a shot of crows bothering a bald eagle after he killed something and was eating it in a field. I got home and started rewinding and thought that there wasn't much tension on the roll film. Oh yeah, I had that stupid camera in my car for three days, going out of my way to take nice pics, and there wasn't any film in the dang camera. I know now I need to slow down. I might have too many projects going.
