Adventures in DSLR Camera Trapping

Adventures in Camera Trapping Volume 1:

I finally got my own DSLR Camera Trap yesterday. This is a type of photography I have been trying to get into for the past few years and I was finally got the opportunity to get my own kit. I took a workshop several years ago, so after receiving my kit yesterday I have been trying to remember everything I learned.

I set up the camera in the backyard yesterday and got my first quality image out of the camera. The very allusive black dog.

Adventures in Camera Trapping Volume 2:

I got my first wild animals on my camera trap today. A female cardinal and a morning dove.

I placed the trap under the bird feeder with the hopes of catching something that would be lured by the bird seed that falls from the feeder above.

I am still working out the clinks with camera position and making sure the sensor is getting triggered properly.
