Look close between the feet. There is a small portion of a snake hanging over the tree limb. Hope he enjoyed it.

Digi-Scope Camera?

Posted By Kurt Horsley
Robert,
The biggest advantage for digi-scoping with digital cameras is to get a camera with a small lens. If the camera lens is smaller than your eyepiece lens, there will usually be no vignetting. However, I have found that cameras with larger lenses usually have better optical quality. Note: There has been much change lately with the increasing quality of modern lenses. There are many cameras with small lenses that equal or surpass the quality of larger lenses. Using one of these cameras will increase both the ease and quality of your work. Good luck. -Kurt Horsley

Michael,
Superb photo! Those "throw em and shoot em" places are pathetic, as are their patrons. What's next...fish in a barrel? -Kurt Horsley
