Point the War Chest West... FART XVI

[Legdog]

Nice job Casey!

Great sharing a fire with you and Devin as well as the regulars. It's always fun to hunt with the pros.

Awesome images. I especially like the tequila shot for Mr. Middleton for the sentimental value. It turned out even better than expected. This was certainly a memorable year not just because of the reunion of old hunting buddies but because of the huge impact of the Middleton Family loss which changed the line-up at the last minute. I'm honored to have had the opportunity to fill Michael's tag in his absence.

One of these days we need to get the charity gang back together. (Michael, Rudy, Larry, Casey, Devin) with a Stovall twist.

I figure I'm done with this antelope killing thing for good now. Maybe I'll shoot one after Sam gets his first one.

How do y'all shoot the Milky Way like that? That's phenomenal

Use tripod
Use remote shutter or timer
Wide angle lens (15mm here)
25-30 Sec exposure (see 500 rule)
1600 ISO
F stop wide open
Focus a tad short of infinity
Find Milky Way (southwest sky right now)
Shoot before the moon comes up and out in a place where there's not a lot of junk light.
Beware of airplane and satellites (streaks your image)

Good luck!

Well

With three antelope on ice it's time to practice the art of campfire fellowship. This image is dedicated to the Michael Middleton family, especially his dad. It's been an emotional and intense day, exactly how it's supposed to be.

Here's to fall. Here's to more campfires with good friends and family. Most of all, here's to the Middletons and the reward of ice chests full of protein.

Salad!

I definitely appreciate the sentiment, the photo and most of all the love and friendship. A charity event sounds like a great plan.

Let me know if it's in this area. Long exposures are always more tolerable when you have company!

This took me exactly 0.0014 seconds to respond to.



This hunt was an amazing experience with some of the men I respect more than almost anyone. I don't know if I could ever ask for more.

Even these amazing pictures don't do justice to just how immense the country is. Felt like stepping back into the 1800's. I was in awe the entire time.

I can't thank the Stovall's and Autry's enough for their generosity. The rest of you knuckleheads made it over the top. It was campfire fellowship I'd gone far too long without. Thank you, men!

Only thing additional I could have wished for was your presence, MM. We thought of you and your dad often. Next year!

Y'all boys carried the torch beautifully this year. I'm sitting at the Phoenix airport catching up on the hunt. Well done by all.
