Tundra buggy

Uploaded: November 03, 2015 | Entered: November 03, 2015 09:26:59

Description

This is one of the tundra buggies that photographers went out in. We lived in a tundra buggy lodge that had sleepers, lounge, kitchen and storage. We would go out each 8 AM in these tundra buggies and back to the lodge about 5PM. You can see the windows drop down and we had an open porch out back so we did not have to shoot through glass. Spent 2 weeks out there in temp down to 29 below zero. Burr!!

Exif: F Number: 7.1, Exposure Bias Value: 1.00, ExposureTime: 1/320 seconds, Flash: did not fire, compulsory flash mode, ISO: 200, White balance: Manual white balance, FocalLength: 125.00 mm, Model: Canon EOS 20D

Actually on the 5th day we broke an axle and could not move the tundra lodge for 8 hours. #11394871

That is cold, but you have to go where they are so its off you go in one of these tundras. How the miseries you encounter are well worth it to get such gorgeous pictures like this. Gorgeous look and work Emile. #11394893
