Hard to beat a day like this! Shot half a box of shells, busted two with the old SxS, shot two 1st time ducks (pintail! greenwing!), and I just woke up from an hour long nap in time to catch the battle of alberta. I'm bagged :)

What a great day:wink:

Your photographs are incredible. Either you are a natural, you've looked at National Geographics all your life, or you've had training.

Ever considered a career as a Photographer ?:-D

People keep saying that, and I keep denying it :D I just hold the camera still.

Well PGK , you're a humble and modest man.

Holding the camera still is one thing, but you've show great composition and artistic flair.;-)

I'm of the firm belief that anyone who wants to take good photographs, can take good photographs. I'm using a $150 camera, and I just take a lot of pictures...something turns out eventually. There are a couple members who are proving me right by taking similar photos with great results! I did get lucky with that spruce grouse though, probably one of my all time favourites

Thanks Hermie

Great photos as always. Looks like a real "ducky" spot. Are you using a dog for retrieves? That double looks almost too nice to be taking to the duck pond (that's my style too by the way);). Might as well use it for what it was made for. No sense leaving it in the safe:cool:.

Nice work PGK, looks like one hell of a great day to me! I really like that pic of the Spruce. I might save that one to my comp:)


How are you retrieving your ducks? Do you use a boat, or what?

The water was shallow in both areas. Able to wade out and grab em. While I was wading out to get the Pintail a couple of Wigeon locked up and sailed into the dekes about 10y away :lol: This could be a good spot. They are stoooooopid

Those are some cool pics PGK!!
Did you go for a hike up Teapot after the shoot?;-)

PGK

I leave the hiking of that hill to the hippies. I just like to make loud noises all around it to keep them on their toes :lol: I did climb it once as a kid, to say I've done it.

Nice shoot! That's a good spot, in particular when the surrounding areas freeze up ;)

Looks like a great day there man. I've wondered about walking the old trail on the east side of the river looking for chickens. I too love the old SxS you used. Going to enter any of those pics to the F&W club photo comp? LOL

I'm interested in knowing the make and model of that camera.

I havea Pentax Optio and frankly, the photos are the shits.

This is one of my better efforts

Looks like a memorable day in the field-I love those mixed bag hunts too. For anyone who enjoys this type of photography, check out Shooting Sportsman magazine sometime http://www.shootingsportsman.com/.

Thanks brew, I'm not really 'into photography', I just use a little point and shoot, hold it still and try to get an interesting perspective.
