Canadian Raptor Conservancy Photo Shoot (aka, my time spent with the zombie family)

[pjaye]

So yes, I was the mystery guest for the Zombie family. What an awesome family. My pictures are no where near as good as @zombiesniper or @ZombiesniperJr pictures. I unfortunately did just not have the right gear. However Zombiesniper was nice enough to let me use his camera a few times.

Caught this guy hiding in the bush.

And of course, the elusive snowy. I figured I was finally going to get to photograph one. After all, it's captive. It can't get away..... No but it can be uncooperative and play dead. He wanted nothing to do with the photoshoot. My one picture.

Thank you. I would have liked them larger too. Unfortunately, for reasons I can't figure out, my computer will not read the canon CR2 files. I tried all day yesterday. I tried Lightroom, Photoshop, Adobe DNG converter and multiple other programs. The files are there, they show the right size but nothing will read them. I spent several hours yesterday trying to rectify it. The only thing that finally worked was a program that unfortunately would only convert them to jpeg. And small jpegs. Trust me, there's a few I would have loved to print large. Even Zombiesniper tried to help. Nothing worked.

Great shots and it was great having you up.

Keep the files and next time we'll transfer them to my computer and I'll see what I can do.

I kept copies of the original files on the computer and I'll see if I have a flash drive to hold them. It really was great meeting all of you. So much fun. Especially the air soft target shooting.

One of my favorites. Wish it had been sharper but it's still closer than I have ever been to one of these majestic birds.

Thank you! Those little owlets were adorable. And seldom looking in the same direction.
