    A very disappointing 5 week soak. A lot of foliage grew up in front of the cams and coons were causing major problems. Here are a few that are worthy of sharing. The first one is from my Sony W7 and the last three are from my Sony H70.

    Nice pics Jim. I feel your pain with the foliage. I have some setups that hasn't had a single issue all spring and others that need weekly attention to prevent false triggers.

    Well I took the weed eater out there and did a mass murder. It usually only takes once a year to do the job but as much rain as we're having this year, it may take a few more times.

    i agree everything has grown up. its gettin hard to get to some of my cams that i put up in the late fall cause everthing was dead. now going back to check them the path i usually take to get to one cam has grown up with sticker weeds so bad i have to go around.

    Beyond the camera, some seem to have an "eye" for what pics are going to be impressive. I assume Jim's photography skills don't end with trail cameras.

    Thank you for the kind words but my wife is the one with the photography skills. My skills, if have any, are in the camera placement area. My typical set is usually 18-24" from where I expect the subject to be. Sometimes I just get lucky.

    Something certainly rubbed off on you. I don't miss any of your picture threads. Mine never seem to quite frame the subject matter as nicely. I have figure out I tend to aim too high.
