Death is nothing compared to vindication.

I've never been anything but a building/model/landscape shooter, but I bought a 55-200 thinking I'd start shooting some animals (and sports to a lesser degree). I went on a bike ride with it today and came across a horse in a field. Only, all I had to see through was a small opening in between some trees.

I thought this picture turned out pretty well until I looked at some of the other stuff in this thread :negative:

My fiancee yelled "OH MY GOD!!!" a couple hours ago. Turns out there was a deer standing right outside the door to our house.

This guy's name is Booger. His hobby is hanging out under my fiancee's car.

Please tell me you gave him that name, and not some local 8-year-old.

My fiancee did.
