Wow, that is pretty awesome for wildlife photography with a 6x6 camera. Well done.

After that little experiment in 2003, I concluded that Hasselblad cameras are better left in the studio - the Pentax 645 and 67 systems are vastly superior for wildlife work as they have TTL flash, as well as faster long lenses. Hasselblad only has a 500mm f/8 as their longest telephoto the Pentax 645 on the other hand has the A*600mm f/5.6 ED, and the 67 M*800mm f/6.7 ED and teleconverters that suit both lenses.

I drove by this farm house for years and stopped to take pics a few times.
Last february we had snow and since the whole farm was going to be turned into townhouses, I went for a last round
This rock pile was in their front, and I noticed then that the shadow looked like a bird!

I remember reading a post I think on photo.net many years ago about someone who was attempting to do serious wildlife photography with a Pentax 67 and a 645n.
That was some serious kit to be packing around...

This is from the very first roll of Kodak Ektar 100 that I ever shot, back in the summer of 2009... Ironically I didn't really like the results I got and it took until 2014 for me to really like Ektar... I think most of the reason I didn't like the film was from not knowing how to scan Ektar properly.
