| Re: Greater Spotted Woodecker Photography?!
Don't get me started.
I used to have quite a simple but effective camera.
Got reasonable results until about two years back when a cherry tree in our front garden just HAD to be removed.
Hubby decided that this was a DIY job, taking the branches off a few at a time and also digging up the roots.
I thought a photographic record of the whole thing would be good All went well until the day our son helped us remove the main trunk - using a winch attached to his car.
Just as the tree keeled over my camera jammed. The film had got fouled on the mechanism. Not only that but the snarl up forced the camera back open. then before I could sort anything the rewind mechanism tripped in so the whole film was exposed.
think I'd rather WATCH than photograph birds |
