Right place, right time....

Rarely do I happen to be in the right place at the right time, but my recent foray to the Rio Grande Nature Center in Albuquerque proved to be a lucky day!

Usually when I'm bird watching, or in this case goose watching, I'm too involved looking at birds and not making flying portraits of them.

This is my rare photo of a close up of birds in action!

Zenit E with Industar lens 50-2.  Delta 100 film dunked in caffenol! 

Honk!

    Nice catch.
    I've got a couple long lenses that would fit that camera including a 135mm Super Takumar and a 300mm Accura. Let me know if you would like to have them and I'll bring them along to the meet-up.

    Mike, thanks! Sure I'd like to at least try them out.
    I have bluebirds in my yard that pose a bit from time to time so I'd like to try some color film on them.
    See you Saturday!
