"A venturesome minority will always be eager to set off on their own, and no obstacles should be placed in their path; let them take risks, for godsake, let them get lost, sunburnt, stranded, drowned, eaten by bears, buried alive under avalanches - that is the right and privilege of any free American." ~ Edward Abbey

" G e t S o m e ! "

Did you ever so something really, really, REALLY stupid? Did you ever do it and then "somewhat recover" the issue? How about catching a shot like this? Then I realized...ISO 800. For those of you who don't speak "techie" camera stuff that means...CARELESS. If your going to be prepared, if your going to shoot wildlife, if your going to be GOOD, then you have to be smart. So my Wild & Woolly photography TIP OF THE DAY is this; Reset you're camera every time you're done shooting. I am sure there are cameras that do this automatically. Heck, mine might even do it. These things are so advanced today, even I have trouble keeping track of it all. So again, don't shoot in broad daylight with your ISO set at 800. If you like this photo and its quality, or in my opinion lack thereof...you should know that I have applied the Orton effect. This is my attempt at recovering this shot to make it 'mo betta. The moral of this story. Pay attention and be prepared, your next shot maybe the "money shot".
