I do, but it wasnt to be today, Dad and Peter were busy shooting their 500's and all I had was Dad's 24-70mm so I figured I would do some landscape and maybe show you what the area looks like that we find them. It was nice to have a little sun today, although it was -24 frozen;

Snow looks a little deep :) Dad took a picture of me as we were walking out and look what flew up behind me :D

Mitchell you don't post very often but when you do I'm always amazed. What a great idea to take 'environment' shots. And these are superb.

Mitchell, Mitchell, Mitchell - that last shot is very impressive. I believe you've inherited a lot of talent from your parents.
When I get down to Alberta, I will gladly share my 500 with you and you can rest it on my shoulder and fire away at these flying owls. I bet that you can take as good a picture as your Dad and Peter.
Congrats on the Great Grey - you're on my admire list (your Dad is on my hate list :biggrin::biggrin::biggrin: - he tortures me!)

Great photos Mitchell, what beautiful countryside. If that last shot is with the 24-70 it is a killer. Thanks for sharing.

Great shots. Part of Photography is making the best of what you got. I would say you did a good job of that. Just dont fall and get lost in the snow. :) If they are going to be using the 500s you should be buggin them for the 100-400 for yourself to use. :) Great work and keep up the GREAT shots!
