They have stamina and are weather proof. these live at 1400'.<br /><br />Andrew, Ta, I've always found cattle relaxing to be round. One has to watch young beasts they can be a bit daft.<br /><br />Keith, she is wonderful. Cows often stick their tongues up their noses........it's because their hooves don't fit.ADRIANhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07113961163396562781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8060152237863452651.post-73821357149267001412011-10-14T20:05:26.343+01:002011-10-14T20:05:26.343+01:00An eventful day Adrian.

When I look at it as presented my brain says it is looking down, in spite of the sky in the photo. When I copied and vertical flipped it then it looks as though you were looking up.

It is a bit a palaver.<br />If you are getting a tripod then it is an expensive business. Cheap ones are worse than no tripod. Mine is aluminium and I have two heads. A pan and tilt and a ball head with a friction adjuster on it. Mine doesn't have a removable centre column but were money no object I would go for that option. It enables you to hang your camera upside down at ground level. I'd also buy carbon fibre. Mine weighs a ton after I've carried it for and hour or so.ADRIANhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07113961163396562781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8060152237863452651.post-19391605992048013032011-10-14T12:12:07.814+01:002011-10-14T12:12:07.814+01:00Brilliant.

I imagine you must if you shoot a subject with a two second exposure. I should really get one but just can't bear to lug too much around when I'm out. I love the highland coo and Solomon's Temple, I think I've been there but a long time ago.annie hoffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02894824060367890048noreply@blogger.com
