Ha ha, so true I love my canon too, and bending down getting into the dirt is not a problem for that shot @randystiefer
My only problem is birds and wildlife, so a better zoom would do me right as my zoom is only 16x and many times the distance is just that little too far.
I don't tend to play with our wildlife here in Africa, they might get a fright!
You're quite right @joanstewart, Gear doesn't matter, Till it does. I worked as a fellow with the Monterey Bay Aquarium for a few years. During that time Gear was suddenly very important.
