12-01-06 8 Point.

Hello All,
It seems we have our share of big 8 points running around here lately!? I actually watched a guy shoot at this buck just before I took these photos. As you can see, he missed.. maybe tomorrow or Sunday he will tag him!?
Later, Phil B.

For some reason, those pics just do not look right.

Fabsroman,
I know what you mean.. I showed my sister when she was over the other day & the first thing she said was, "Those look Photo shopped!" They turned out looking "3d-ish?" the one of him running looks really weird.. like he is floating!?
Trust me though, I also took some video after I took these pics & I took a bunch of pics! lol

Anyone know of a site where I can upload a LARGE (100+Mb) video(s) to? I don't know crap about editing video or "resizing" them!
Phil B.

the exposure is not right.... that is prob why they look photoshopped....

are you using a digital? With the snow, they will be overexposed, and will make things look not quite right.

Toxic11,
Yes, it's a Konica Minolta DiMage Z5, 12X optical zoom... I'm still new to the digital/camera thing. lol I usually set it to manual & adjust the exposure ect as I'm looking threw the view finder until it looks half descent!? I think there is something wrong w/the camera to begin with.. I have never been happy w/it! It just EATS batteries (even Energizer Rechargeable 2500mAh) & you can never get it to focus quite right. I have tried EVERY setting/combo you can think of, Auto focus+Anti Shake/On/Off, Manual focus+Anti Shake/On/Off. Full auto just S U C K S!!! I've had the camera for about 1 1/2 years & I'm looking to get something different.. Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ50!?
Later, Phil B.

If you have played with the settings and it don't look right it may be time for another camera...

I have a panasonic digital right now, and it takes great pictures, but I miss the manual settings of my old Nikon 35mm SLR.. so I am thinking on getting a Nikon D70 or D80 digital SLR.... just need to find the $$ lol.
