Choice of tools . . .

The 90mm lens appears to have been the logical choice of lens for shooting "big game," images while on a photo safari wielding the contax; however perhaps a wider angle lens would have yielded a sharper more interesting images Trym. I would have tried to capture this image with the 90, too. It sees just too logical not to try to use its higher magnification. Seeing your results with the combination of the high speed film and the 90 and then viewing your other prized landscapes it seems likely that the 90 might not have been the best tool for the job. although I think you had fun, experimenting.
