I just started taking wild life pictures as a hobby because I was where ever I was at. It helped pass the time, and hopefully not go completly nuts.:D I do not think it worked very well though, because I enjoy looking at very small pieces of metal mark out the time a little to much I think.:D  I will change my avitar every so often with some other wild life shots I have taken.  It is actualy nice to let other people see them even though they are chopped up and shrunk down.:)

Cool!!! Which camera are you using? Where did you capture that bat pic? In an enclosure(zoo for e.g.) or in the open?

I think soon you will be taking pics of watches if you stick around here from now! :P

It does not take a great camera (a 35mm compairs to a 5 megapixle) as much as it does a good operator, with a basic understanding of light.  I carry a $300 dollar fuji 4.2 meg. digital slr with 10x optical zoom (fuji S 5100).  My avitar was taken with a minox that is a great advanced no frills nothing automatic tuff as nails camera.  No I was not in an inclosure.  The plastic casses that cameras have now are more than likely stronger cameras.  Just have not dropped one out of a tree yet to find out.  Digital is a great format because you have instant feed back on what you did or didnot do correctly.  Mathematics and Physics is the study of all of this be it watches, cameras, or falling out of a tree trying to get a picture of a bat I almot broke my arm to get that shot.

PS the back ground is a man made  blind for reasearch.  They called the engineers in when they coud not get the low thread count hemp fabric covered in epoxy resin to shed the water off.  It rained there every day and there equipment kept getting wet.  It was just a funny situation.

Hey Jacky!  I love my Omega but you never know.  BTW, that's a great GIF of a great watch.  WTG!
Trying to stay away from more vintage bidding until I sell about a dozen I still have from my last frenzy!
