Nice rydes spotted in the wild @ Twentynine Palms. M-55 self propelled howitzer.

Isaac hits a bulls eye at about 100 yards.

Found this scene roughly 30 yards from our tent. Someone had placed beer bottles on the ends of broken tree limbs and then shot them off and left the pieces.

Just an accidental shot

Why do so many people who shoot leave trash? The top of this ridge, from where I took the lovely photos that precede these, is completely littered with shells and things that have been shot. Why?

This slingshot was made using Crape Myrtle, surgical tubing, waxed string, and tanned leather.

If they don't want you to shoot them why do they make them so darn visible from a distance?

Tips on Flight Photography:

  

Many people have asked me about Bird In Flight shots. Here's some of my humble experience:

1: You need a SLR camera for better results. P&S is OK too as long as you can set your timing on the camera.

2: Set you timing to a minimum of 1/1000".(The smaller the bird, the faster speed you'll need.)

3. Invest $1.50 on some cheesies(good color for easy focus and you can also eat'em while you're shooting) and go to find one seagull near water. Don't worry, they'll all come once you start the feeding.

4:Throw the cheesie on the water, FOCUS ON THE CHEESIE, and you will get results like these in minutes.

5.Wear a hat in case of droppings.

6. Wear running shoes in case you have to run when there are more than 100 of them.(Don't forget to grab the cheesies.)

Once you've master the seagulls, then you can move on to ducks and geese in flights.

Monthly Scavenger Hunt ~ December 2008

#8 -- You'll shoot your eye out

 

Not a total fluke -- I used to be a very good shot, although I'm sure my hands aren't that steady anymore.

 

Tip: Aim with both eyes open.

 

(I taped a piece of red paper behind the bullet hole so it would show up.)

This was a target I shot with a 9mm PX4 Compact on the range back in May. I liked my earlier picture of the Desert Eagle with a target, so I thought I'd go back and take a picture of this target with the PX4.

 

It looks a bit like the Inox (two tone) version - but that's just the light on the very shiny black surface.
