Many people have already given their point of views and share how wildlife photography is all about.
Please do not label wildlife photographers as irresponsible people. There far more worst people out there, i.e. POACHERS !!
It looks like an explanation or a simple apology should be in place...
Oh by the way eng60232 , looks like you are also trying to buy a 500mm ? Shooting spiders and butterflies with this sort of focal length ?
Since you are already distancing yourself from bird photography, don't' waste money !
Looks like harsh language is your cup of tea !
Please go ahead since you're ashamed to be associated with bird photographers. Your words have already made a lot of people unhappy.
And please do not sow discords among the small community here.
From now on, please avoid us Bird photographers...
Both birders and bird photographers share one common thing : Birds !
Birders love to twitch so are bird photographers.
Birders use binoculars and scopes to view images of birds out in the wild. But those images will only remain in each person's memory. You cannot share it with your children...
I fully support Dennis on this.
Blogs and threads like these with locations revealed mean that you have already given away the location to the public eyes. Its the circle of trust that most bird photographers adhere to, which you can see they never reveal locations publicly.
The guilty ones...
Fellow bird photographers alerted me to this thread while I was out in Malaysia on my usual bird photography.
I am going to use simple Singapore English here, just in case there are others who are not able to digest those complicated words exchanged previously.
Varanus, limmick and jcho...
