Hey, We can't let this one go without comment. Wow, the dedication is amazing. I've done some wild things to get a shot but don't think I would have attempted this one even in my younger days. Great shot and moreover a great story.

Beautiful photo Dave! Quite a story behind it too. I think it was indeed worth it.

Heck of a shot Dave,but i just have to ask, what did you us the 8 shotgun shells on?
|
Worth it? Damn straight. Great shot.

Another excellent photograph and commentary Dave. So, since you used all shot-shells on the tree, I am assuming someone was home praying that you did not meet a bruin on the way out?

Other railfans gunning for the same spot, no doubt!

Now this is really going the extra mile for a shot! Most definitely worth it, a spectacular shot that no one else has gotten, excellent work Dave! I think you just became one of the first to qualify for idiot railfan rule number 5, haha. If you havnt seen it aleady: http://www.mswphoto.com/IdiotRailfan/you_know.html

Well worth the effort! If you are up to an encore, how about a wide angle?
