Default So I took a trip to God's country. (56K)

Well my fiance, my parents and I all took a trip down to my parent's house they bought down in Lenoir, NC (very western NC almost to Tennessee). As always it was good times. Here's a few pics I figured came out ok.

Enjoy.

Camera is a Canon 300D (Digital Rebel).





Exposure time - 4724 seconds


These 6 shot rounds out of a 12 gauge


Did this. Gun carries a damn nice pattern.






Yeah this was a big boy. He was about 4-4 1/2 inches across.


My neice.

Thanks guys. My sister actually lives in Johnson City, TN. My dad and I called it God's country because it's just so beautiful and peaceful there. I mean literally the relaxation just comes out of you. I slept in every day of this weekend.

But if you actually wanna know the exact location it's Lenoir, NC which is very western NC almost to TN.

I'll try to fix the ones that are exceeded.

I used a combination of my 50MM 1.8II and 70-300MM f/3.5-5.6

Dude, those are by FAR the best (quality and clarity) digital pics I have EVER seen aside from high-budget pro photography. Awesome, awesome pics; I love nature, and those pictures help to justify why.

Honestly I don't know. I don't know if it's just stuff that the lens picked up or not. I mean it was open for over 70 minutes haha.

I'm not sure.
