Wildlife Photography Platform

Unread post by ruthless »

This may be OT, so admin may have to move it. I am sure it will give me the opportunity to get some of my "Best Shots". It is the Native Watercraft Ultimate 14.5 kayak with the propel pedal drive. It alllows hands free propulsion and frees up your hands for fishing and or photography. I have added a blind system to this one for wildlife photography as it is illegal to hunt from boats (floating Blinds) in most of VA. Pretty cool huh, cant wait to shoot from it.

I'd probably have to have a lot more familiarity and confidence with a kayak before I brought my photo gear out with me! Looks to me like you're there...I can't wait to see what you shoot with this new rig!

Well planed Cory. It's a very interesting approach. And I think this will interest Gustav 'Kingfisher' too.
