Yak, it was good to meet you guys too. If you like sheep go to the sheep forum and look under Ewes, Lambs and Small Rams. I posted about 10 photos there yesterday. They are much better than my deer photos because on most of them I was able to use my tripod and all my deer photos are hand held.
All these photos were taken with an Olympus E-3. It's a professional camera in the hands of a rookie. It takes great photos, but the shutter is very noisy, so that's a big disadvantage when you get close to wildlife. No matter what camera or lens you are using, one of the main secrets to getting good wildlife photos, is getting close and taking lots of photos and hopefully a few will turn out. I have bow hunted for 50 years, so its taught me a lot about getting close to critters. But I'm a rookie when it comes to photography, but I love its challenge and its a lot like bowhunting itself.

Here's a few more deer photos and I will post a few more later today.
Have a good one. BB
