  1. <p>Thanks very much for the info., Tom. I had a feeling we would not be able to just send them our stuff. lol and for that reason I started uploading to the gallery today. I had before only entered once a month if I remembered to the contest. Out of the original 13 submissions I made, three were chosen for the daily dozen, one was published in the "your shot" book, and one is available for wallpaper from the site. And still I have no idea how to contact anyone there regarding my images. A little frustrating. Even when exchanging information regarding the image that was published I talked to no one important like photo editors. Feeling a little sorry for myself now. lol</p>
  2. <p>Tom I recieved the same email requesting five of my images. No problem with Nat. Geo. wanting to put my stuff on their stock site, I just wish they had included a little more info. for us. Like will we be able to add more images with a link given to us or they (nat geo) will only request an image from our gallery there? Will we be able to have a gallery and profile on the stock site etc.?<br>

    I also know of three other photographers they requested from as well. My guess is they are asking lots of folks now who participate in the "your shot" contest.</p>

  3. <p > I was horrified when I noticed several ticks crawling all over me while out shooting yesterday. Although tempted to run and scream I was so close to a beautiful hawk I didn’t want to leave so I just clicked and flicked. Ticks are always a hazard when shooting out in nature but I try not to use any repellant for fear of it getting on my lenses. Anyway with them (ticks) being so bad this season what is the best repellant you guys would recommend?</p>
  4. <p>Hi Steve thanks for the response and actually I have done most of what you suggest. Except for facebook, I refuse to do that one! lol I do not know any professional wildlife and nature shooters and of course those would be folks to ask as well.</p>
  5. <p >I have been a shooting as a serious hobby for about four years. I have had fun, won cameras, camera gear etc. I mostly shoot wildlife since that is what I enjoy the most. Being a professional at this is something that I have thought about but figured I had a long way to go before this may or may not happen. Anyway this past week another image of mine was selected in National Geographic’s daily dozen. Out of the seven pics I have sent to them two have been picked and one published. Maybe I am better at this hobby than I think I am. Anyway I don’t know what to do if anything or where to begin to maybe try and do wildlife photography as a profession. Any advice?</p>
  6. <p>Stephen 525.00 is not what I was seeing for a used 120mm Nikkor more like 1025.00, of course I was looking on ebay. lol Excellent to hear this works so well. Thank you for the reply.</p>
  7. <p>Hi CC, and yes that is exactly what I was asking about. Good information to know and thank you. So maybe a possibility for me to use these lenses in the future at some point.</p>
