    Cheers Ray. Bet the 8' aerial with the 'umbrella' frame on top wasn't too popular in the field....

    Yep, and im trying for two great shots of an MG-34 MG-Nest. Both in Russia and both are winter shots. Bidding on one ends in a few hours and I have high bid on it, the other ends tomorrow and I have yet to bid on it but am watchin it and several others for opportunity. The one (if you want to look at it in my watch list area) that I want the most shows a great shot from directly behind the MG with two men in sheepskin coats watching to the front. This is a great shot and one ive waited for for a long time. If I dont get this one? the other guy will be paying well over $40 for it. I bet he thought he was going to get it for much less by bidding high and scaring the natives away--well-be thought wrong. Bidding high doesnt scare me and if I really want somehting I bid high from the get-go. So far though, im hanging on by my fingernails on this one. If I lose out on it? then there are those several great Russian Armor shots im gouing to try for. If I win this MG pic? then the only other ill bid on-unless none of the Armor shots are bid on? will be that 2nd MG-34 MG-Nest winter shot. I turned down a lot of images because I could tell they were postcards-and im not wasting my money on postcards.
