BT - Nice shot of the "O" Pinion catch

Thanks guys

KC, the camera is a Canon EOS 10D with Tamron 28-300mm F/3.5-6.3 and Sigma EX 17-35mm F/2.8-4 lenses. I was also using my little Canon A85.

Here is another shot I meant to post - the Viking man... this is a great shot of him by the fire.

One of the highlights for me was running into my good friends Harry Lewellyn & his wife Jenna, who I haven't seen in several years, at the racetrack. He has had a large influence on my backcountry experiences.

I thought that name sounded familiar when you posted Al. Then I was reading some magazine this weekend and it mentioned Harry's name and www.eco4wd.com.

Same guy I'm assuming? Quite the site for 4wd education and adventure tours.

Yes, that's the Harry we met at the Race Track.
He's had a huge influence on my 4x4 adventuring and it's through his trips that I have met Al and others whom we now explore with.
Unfortunately he doesn't do any tours any longer.

Same guy. I met Uwe, Jack, MrS & YukonBob directly thru Harry, which then led to Goodtimes, Chris, Chuck, BX, Scott & eventually this forum. The rest is history.

Well worth the wait - Randy your photos are amazing! :bowdown:

thanks for posting

 

[BajaTaco]

Hey Randy, great photos! I hope Linda didn't get tooo cold on the rim - I think she had enough already

 

[whitethaiger]

Excellent pictures!

Here is the other view of the "Shoot-out on Swansea Grade" (goes with this)

Randy, here is a link to the "single Picture" folder No birds :wavey:

Awesome Randy! I'm not a bird watcher or shooter but I enjoyed looking through those, just beautiful. Now I see why you work with that jumbo lens.

Your DV shots are great. Pics of BedHeadDude always get over with me! I'm not sure what Chuck was doing in that outhouse but I really loved the photo of Srisuda from the "Shoot-Out on Swansea Grade." Very vivid and rich colors.

Glad you two made it home safely, I really enjoyed getting to meet & visit with you and Linda. I hope this winter will allow you plenty of time to work on your slice and to get that leaky radiator fixed.

I'll look forward to visiting with you around the campfire again sometime soon! :beer:

I was waiting for that photo of me in the old crapper, that as funny. Nice pics Randy. BTW, I sent you a PM Randy.
