    Thanks for sharing this. I've been going pure hand held for a couple years, and I'm going to try and attach the tripod this summer. Thanks for ideas, happy shooting.

    You are welcome! I may try a lightweight crossbar in the future but the tripod method is an easy way to get started. Happy shooting to you as well.

    Thanks for making this video... Right now I use my 20ft Skeeter as a platform to photograph from... I need a smaller boat. I have been looking at Kayaks... But, thinking about putting my photo gear in one, well, they make me really nervous.

    I am thinking about a flat bottom john boat with a trolling motor. It won't get me to some of the same spots as a kayak but still a good option.

    Do you think that bright orange t-shirt helps with wildlife photography? No effect? Curious.

    LOL, probably not, I was just showing my setup. However, with eagles, it would not matter. But with other creatures it would be better to be wearing camo or neutral colors. I need to paint my kayak as well.
