Don’t leave home without it. Your digital camera that is! You will never know who is out there float tubing!
That looks like it might be lonehunter, from the Michigan board. He likes to get away from the ice about this time of year.
Good shot. I think you got his true essence.
By the way, where are the pics of the fish? I know, you released them all, but one of them was so large that the file weighed 3 pounds when you downloaded it from your camera.
was that you taking my picture ?![]()
i’ve been busted with my mr. quackers float tube again !!![crazy]
good thing my snowbird legs were underwater , they tend to make digital cameras go analog , lol !
Hey lone hunter, Somehow I knew that you were a tuber. I guess it took time to come out of the closet. Or to get Mr. Quackers to hold still long enough to mount him. LOL
yep , mr.quackers and i seem to get a little attention where ever we go . i’ve read where it’s best to blend into the suroundings so you don’t spook the fisk , ducks, water , what could look more natural ?[:)]
Dont worry lonehunter, they got your good side[;)]
Personally I must be technoligy challanged. I do not own a digital camera. To complicated for an old feller like me. But how about I carry my little 35 mm. Will that work.
Just giving you a hard time.
Any kind of camera is fine. With some of them it just takes longer to get your pics. With others you can keep your pics longer. I found out by leaving my digital unattended for some time and the batteries went low and I lost the pics that I had stored in it. Nextime I need to upload them right away.
Hey, Indiana Kid, welcome to our little hoorah. Got to let you know you are in good company here. Quite a few of us guys are at least “plenty nine”.
As Dryrod suggests, you are only too old when you are too old to try. Yeah, it gets a little harder every year to soak up some of the new technology, but boy when you get a handle on it, it sure can make life more fun and interesting.
I have been float tubing over 45 years, but I only got “computerized” a few years ago. And, after shooting 35 MM film for all my life, I got a new Olympus D-550 digital less than a year ago. I’m still learning how to make the best of what I bought, but for the most part it is “codger-proof”. Pretty much point and click. Of course it gets more complicated when you have to download the images to a computer and then to size, crop and enhance them for best effect.
If you shoot film, most developing places now have the potential to also put your images on a CD, as well as prints. This makes it possible for you to share with others…family, friends or other BFT members.
You guys have really been getting a winter back there. When have you put in the order for spring?
HAHAHA YOU GUYS FOUND CHAMP!! HAHA LONEHUNTER I DIDNT THINK YOU COULD RIDE THAT GOOD !! HAHAHA HE DIDNT BUCK YA OFF?? HAHA[:)][;)][;)][;)][;)][;)]
I gotta share a pic I took yesterday on my first trip out this year. Might be my last.
Looks like the drought conditions have created a race of giant rats…who wanna become float tubers.
hey , look out it’s a I.R.S. agent !
