Something to ease your mind and sooth your soul.

I have worked with Bob for several years but it wasn't until he asked my advice on what firearm to carry while backpacking in Mountain Lion country that I learned he was a gifted outdoor photographer. He decided on an AR-15 platform and I said "Yeah! that'll do".  So here is a link to some of his work. I hope ya'll like it.

screw that...... I am not facing a bear with anyone short of a .308. But the photos look fantastic. Makes me wonder how my dad keeps messing up shots with his nikon.

I dont know. We checked the lenses and everything. It just missing that final touch. The touch to capture beauty, but allas it always slips at the most crucial moments.

Bob's guide had a 338 Lapua slung over his shoulder. I had a reason for this post but if Bob knew about it he would be embarrassed. All I can say is he needs our prayers.  

 

The old male, in his last bear photo, has been fighting off all comers to protect his harem.  Bob said that bear would not live much longer but he is the dominate male. That photo speaks to me.

I bet he has some hair raising tales to go with those bear pics.

I spoke with Bob at work today. He has had over 50,000 hits on his photo sharing web site. I told him that I posted his website on TGO but there is NO WAY that the TGO could generate 50,000 hits. Then he started naming gun forums that I had never heard of.  I asked him if he was some sort of photographic genius and he said no, it's more about patients, like Turkey hunting. You have to wait for the good shots.

 

 I asked him about his camera equipment and he said that he has spent less than $1000 for his equipment. This Bullfrog just makes me smile!
