It was you saying Bet you're scared now that threw me off.  How

RE: The Last Two Days

I do like the shot of me with that huge lens though.  But tv informs me that
I'm holding it wrong!

Any camera with a weighty lens attached should be held so that the lens
is placed in the palm of the left hand. This offers several benefits:

1. the weight of the cam/lens combo is taken by the left hand/arm,
leaving the right hand free to adjust various settings and gently press
the shutter release.

2. offers a greater 'damping' effect than holding the lens the other way
- you'll be able to shoot at slower shutter speeds

3. reduces the amount of stress on the lens mount

4 and maybe other benefits as well - after all this *is* the PDML

Shooting handheld with long glass, if you can, always brace against
something static like a lamp post or jumbo jet or nuclear flask etc. If
standing free, spread feet apart, draw elbows in to the waist/chest, hold
breath at point of exposure.

...or (of course) use a lens with IS.

Cheers,
  Cotty

Cotty gave me some advice on holding big lenses including:

Shooting handheld with long glass, if you can, always brace against
something static like a lamp post or jumbo jet or nuclear flask etc. If
standing free, spread feet apart, draw elbows in to the waist/chest, hold
breath at point of exposure.

If you look at the other pics that frank took of me shooting the deer,
(there is like 3 or 4 of them i think), you will notice that that is just
what I am doing.  I braced against the little lean-to thingy to steady
myself and support the lens.  Didn't help the pics much though, they still
sucked. lol.

...or (of course) use a lens with IS.

I'm close Cotty, so very, very close...

Thanks, tom,
I don't know that I'd go so far as you (humility prevents me, after all 
g), but it's certainly my favourite of the shots I took.

cheers,
frank

I second tv's observations Frank!  And somehow, I want a copy!

BTW, that last roll of black and white is a bit scary, there are WAY to many
pics of my mug on there!

I do like the shot of me with that huge lens though.  But tv informs me that
I'm holding it wrong!
