I have so much fun taking pictures of other people taking pictures. A really great opportunity got away from me this summer when dozens of really interesting looking people were standing on the side of the highway taking pictures of a moose and calf grazing in a meadow. Kind of like this one.

Photographers


and Subject...



So I am starting this thread entitled Photographer and Photo. Here are some samples.

Photographer


And photo.



Also, if you have similar shots and would like to share them in this thread, feel free!
They can be either photographer and the image the photographer produced, or a picture of photographers along with what they were taking a picture of.

cheers, tess

From today, Tess caught me trying to avoid getting wet.

I see your focus wasn't on the big DANGER sign

I think that's posted there for people with children.
Signs like that are posted on every dam in the park. I don't think I even see them anymore. After all, if you're white water boater, you've survived worse than this a few time. You know the risks.

The photographer appears to be intent on capturing a distant boat on the horizon. Nice photo.

Looking for the Sapsucker Nest Hole



I found the hole and set up, ow waiting for the little guy to stick his face out.


There's the little guy.


Tess doesn't post here much here anymore. But she contributed the images of me, and first discovered the nest hole. This was the last time we saw the chick. She was out of the nest while I was here and I could hear the chick and mom calling each other somewhere close. That was the last we saw of them. Tess saw her walking the tree branches and flying hither thither and yon the day before. This was probably her last morning near the nest. It's right off of one of our dog walk trails. But the bush is dense, and even after Tess pointed out where it was, it took me a long time to find a place where I could get a clean shot thorough the trees, made more difficult in that I had to stay far away from the nest. There was a rock face I was on top of, with no opportunity to move forward.

Nice series showing what it sometimes takes to get a nice photo. Good work by both of you.

I appreciate the back story as much as the images. Best to you and Tess.

Thanks for commenting. And yes, the back stories are always fun. I wish there were more.
