Curmudgeon Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 For those of you not familiar with the term, it means taking photos with a point and shoot camera through a spotting scope or binoculars. I took these photos of Calliope Hummingbirds last week in Idaho with a cheap point and shoot and a very high quality scope. The bison photo was taken with the same equipment. The other photos I've taken over the years, mostly for documentation purposes. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otto Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 I didn't know that technique had a name. This was my first attempt at it with my cell phone and spotting scope. Red tail hawk. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good start Otto. Here is a golden eagle photo from about a half mile distance taken in my yard. It's similar to yours but I cropped it a bit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
