I need to rant...

I didn't mean to start an argument guys. I just hate to see people pay for work and get less than work.

Go along with hunters (pheasant, turkey, deer, duck, whatever) and capture their experience, and with any luck the action as well.

Cool, me too, just whitetail deer and turkey hunts though. My husband films hunts and I shoot the pics. He's got major buck fever, bow season in MO starts Tuesday.

It's a lot of fun! The videography side of it is a little stressfull and requires a lot of late nights editing but it'll be worth it eventually.
I just shoot on my family farm so I don't have to search for hunters to take pics of.
So did you just put up an ad for any hunter that wants his/her pics taken?

They have to start somewhere..To become good at anything requires practice. Maybe they start to early but they will learn or fail.

Any rant starts and argument.

If you'd like to start several more, let me suggest some excellent topics for you...

- Nikon/Canon sucks
- The following people are not worthy of the title professional
- You have to have a xxxMP camera in order to take good pictures
- Anyone using cheap glass is an idiot
- Amiga rulz

Yeah, so anyone local can call or email me if they want and I'll tag along - they'll shoot with bow/guns and I'll shoot with my camera.

What are you talking about?
Good job with the thread though.. I mean I haven't been here all that long, but I feel as though I have seen quite a few of these threads.

Here is another fun one you can post in

But really, who cares. I think people who get bothered by it should go stick their head in the sand until they've got it together enough to be a grown up.

As for your comment above, you took a long shot on that one. You probably do not know the circumstances surrounding the relationship and the deal involved (family, friends, strangers, free, cheap, expensive, etc).
