Hope you guys are in the thick of them this morning! And with light.
While it sucks big time for Randy it sucks just as much for Dirk....nothing worse than telling Randy "no light" when there is a legal bull in front of him, and nothing sucks worse for Randy than dealing with the camera iris...
Making us look bad I tell you. Camera guys.....they are a pain in the butt. If Randy wouldn't have beat me up so bad hiking on our last trip I'd fly down and help. Sorry to hear this man.
Trust me we each brought our own food. All randy has eaten so far is pb&j. Ran into a bruiser this morning but couldn't get the wind to cooperate. After 3 hrs of tromping thru the lumber we are finally chilling for a bit.
I hear you on the movement of Bison through the upper paradise valley...here is a shot of a bull in Gardiner enjoying the first greens of the year! As much as it sucks dealing with mowing over the bison pies it's great seeing bison with a little more elbow room to range in the winter.
And...
must be the cameraman talent...Loren and I spend 290 days in intensive stealth classes in the off season prepping for OYO...the host and guests should try it. The key was actually to have the guys stay a hundred yards or so in front of us, as IdahoBugler said...workes like a charm...now we just...

Yup. A cameraman with a big camera on a five foot tall...
Bart you have my vote regarding the value of horses and mules? Next season we should film the whole OYOA series via horseback! Good luck convincing sir hikes a lot.
Coming from a cinematographer's point of view(such as Lorens) I'd say the challenge of his job just increased 100-fold. Total bummer on the t-pod. Hope you guys can still make it happen...best of luck.
Normal setting on the camera for the sunset shots, just set exposure for the sky. As for the lens I used a 17-24 wide angle. A big elk rack on Randy's back would have looked cool in the shot!! Next time.
