Funnily enough, I always wanted to have a go at clay pigeon shooting...

Laughing recalling a memory this image evoked. Long story which I won't go into.

Ray, I like this lighter border much better. And either way, it is an excellent catch.

I'm with you, Jeanne, and how ironic is it that my husband works for a company that does trade shows for hunting equipment! A fine shot, Ray, and the crop is excellent.

Guest		25-Aug-2004 17:55
Oh, and the pictures fine Ray. The crop makes it more intersting!

I never understood why people want to shoot guns...Just doesn't seem any good comes from it! But that's just me....head going back in the sand now!

Good use of your long lens to create this actin shot. IMHO the black border is too much.
