One thing that is really easy to pick out as a photographer is another photographer. You see a guy with a monopod, that black and gold nikon neckstrap, and the Sigma version of your lens, pointing it at a far off tree, it’s probably worth a stop. Using their eyes instead of yours will find shots you didn’t know were nearby.
Such was the case today. It’s been 100f+ in Denver, and I was having trouble sleeping. So screw it, grab the camera and let’s go hit some morning light at the wildlife refuge. A lot of great active deer at 6am, but seeing a guy who is clearly not shooting landscapes, I’ve got to stop and see what he sees. Turns out it’s a Swainson’s Hawk that’s flying a hunting route back and forth between two trees.
I neglected to get a website link for Janus, my bird buddy for the morning. But if he ever finds his way onto this page, thanks dude!
