LoL, now I've given that some thought! I did shoot a ram one time with a 17-35! I'll try to find it. . . It's a crazy shot.
That bison shot was made with a 80-400 vr nikon zoomed out to 400 on a d2h, iso 640.
there have been a few times already this year that I could have used a wide angle lens and gotten great shots. like two days ago when I almost got run over by this moose. I was not looking for them, or stalking them, this moose stalked up on me and before I knew it he had just about eaten me for lunch. This is a wild, hunted moose too. This aint no jackson hole yellowtone moose!
I had just enough time to turn and rattle off a few frame before I got the heck out of the way. I was set up to shoot ducks so did not expect to have a moose sneek up on me. . . its a blurry shot but he's moving fast, I'm almost moving fast and I'm out of light, it's a 1/60's shutter speed and I think the lens focused on the body, not the face. . . Like I said, I was shooting and looking for an escape route!
