Hey John,
I'm glad you mentioned the 40mm MaxView. I've been wanting one for a while to use with the Pronto. How do you like yours? I've done a lot of eyepiece projection (afocal) and the MaxView looks like about the best solution. Would you recommend it? -Kurt Horsley

That Swarovski has amazing optics. You're making me want one. -Kurt Horsley

Big buck suffering from doe fever

Now that's a good one...
The "Big Buck" is more like a "Bird Dog"! (if you know what I mean). -Kurt Horsley

My attempt at a redwinged blackbird

Nice job Tyler. He looks great. Once again, that Swarovski sure is sharp. Like you, I'm thinking of trying a MaxView 40 with my C5. Might be pretty good. -Kurt Horsley

Redtail Hawk

Posted By Kurt Horsley
Nice job Ty. I'm going to try to go to a local site later today, where a huge female always sits on her nest. She's a huge bird, and I think there are young in the nest. It's not easy to get to but we'll see how it goes, and if she'll stay put when I approach. If she does, the pictures will be amazing. The nest is so large you would think it's an eagles nest. -Kurt Horsley

Extreme Closeup Muley Buck

Posted By Kurt Horsley
Sweet sweet sweet! What a great image. I see some artificats appearing from the ccd in the camera. Are you using too much magnification in the image processing or possibly cropping it a little to tight? Still, it's an amazing image. I really liked the one yesterday too. -Kurt Horsley

Jeff,
That is one awesome shot. Should be made into a book cover.

Salt and Pepper on the refuge!

Tyler,
I like this shot. The vignetting doesn't detract from it at all. I think people make too much out of it. BTW, all the pictures look great. Looks like you had a lot of fun.
