Do you shoot a film camera Brit? Gosh, I’ve about forgotten all about how they work! Nowdays its point the phone and hit a button. But the quality of your pictures sure shows the difference....
 
I caught a sailfish in Mexico. Fought him for almost an hour. Once in a lifetime fish. Got him up close to the boat and I let him go. The captain and the mates were yelling and carrying on but I just couldn't kill that beautiful fish. If I turned him into a trophy all the meat would just go to waste. This was as good a shot as I could have hoped for.
You, capnball, are a true sportsman.
 
I was having lunch when I looked up to see where the "screaming" was coming. There were two Bald Eagles sitting no more than 15 ft. above my head. So I shot him (with a camera). you could here the wind in his wings.

Should've taken the shot, they are tasty. Actually better eating than a Condor. :)

The young ones look a lot like goldens for the first few years of their lives. I sure can't tell though.

View attachment 20330 One of my favorite looking mushrooms. I think it's called "Old man of the woods".

Here's a mushroom we came across while hunting. Later we met some "shroomers" that got excited when I showed them the picture. They said it was good eating but I can't remember the name. When I first spotted it I thought it was a snake.

This guy passed by i and my grandson about 15 feet away. He took us by surprise and barely got the picture. He never saw us.

Recently, I listened to a podcast about a guy who'd been making thirty thousand a year foraging for wild food, and selling the stuff to restaurants around the country. He had to scale back when his missus got sick, and he had to take a job for the health care.
 
The one that's very common around here in the wet summer and fall is called a porchini (spelling). I have brought some home for a friend who taught me how to recognize them. He's still alive but I'm still not planning to eat any..
