I don't think others have good reason to object when the considered fieldcraft you demonstrate clearly has the welfare of the subject as top priority. In any hobby (less so in business) you will get elitist/purist types who frown upon certain techniques to make life that little bit easier. My simple view is that most photographers are ethical and honest, and ultimately will gain little long-term satisfaction from images that stem from little or no effort. This personal judgement depends on the species itself, its rarity and the degree it makes itself available to be seen, amongst others. Over the last week or so, it is clear your oppossum images have been the result of much considered thought, planning and effort in obtaining the images you envisaged. It is fair to say that most quality images take time to organise/plan/co-ordinate. An intelligent approach to obtaining a higher success rate should be admired as smart and not frowned upon. <br /><br />Kind regards<br />JulianJuliannoreply@blogger.com
