My hat's off to those wildlife photographers with the patience to sit in blinds for days, stalk moose through deep snow, and climb trees. I just happened on these fellows, and they will be in an OIA show next month at NY Law School in Soho.

| Bee and Pollen |
The Squirrel and the Butterfly (not to be confused with French movies with similar title, were shot with an Olympus 410. The Bee was with a Canon 5d.
What was required was patience and more patience. Especially the Bee - it was three hundred degrees and I was using a macro and had no depth of field to fall back on....after using the 5d for almost a year, I am surprised by the quality of the 10 megapixel Olympus images...and on a four thirds sensor yet. To a large extent, it's still the person, not the machine.
My spouse uses a Kodak point and shoot, and it makes for some amazingly good images within it's limitations. Crikey, how things change and yet remain the same. However, making images with a 21 Megapixel full frame machine is a little like shooting medium, and sometimes, large format film. And I never had the energy to schlep a 4x5, film backs, and tripod for a grand total of 12 images.
