Sandhill Crane, Bosque National Wildlife Refuge, San Antonio NM, January 30, 2010
Man o man - I shot this handheld with George's Canon EF 100-400mm f4.5-5.6L IS USM Telephoto Zoom Lens on my new Canon EOS 7D camera. Zoomed all the way out to 400mm. Other than cropping this image is right straight out of the camera. This old duffer who never handled a real camera before finds this just amazing. What a hoot!
You'll find a larger version of this picture over on my Birds Series of photos.
Thank you George for letting me play with this lens.

Privileges
It would be possible, of course, to feel contempt for people entirely oblivious of the power structure within which they had their own security. But what do people in general know about how their privileges relate to their fellow citizens' lack of privileges? Is it possible, even, to live with an exact knowledge of where you yourself stand in the network of human exploitation?
