I saw something funny in today's copy of Life America's Weekend Magazine
(newspaper insert). On page 7 is an article called Swamp Thing. There is a
photo of Carl Brooks who is a paparazzi, dressed up in a ghillie suit (Camo
net covering). He's sporting a Canon EOS camera and a Canon 500mm lens. I
guess I would sneak around like he does if I could get $200,000 for my
pictures.

I couldn't find a link to Life Magazine, but I found another picture of Carl
in the camo suit. Go to:

A bush with a big white lens rather draws one's attention, wouldn't you
say?

He needs to make that lens look like a branch with a tree suit of it's own.

Anyone remember the Monty Phython bit "The Art of Not Being Seen"

What Tom said.

I guess re rents his 600mm f/4 and can't camo tape them.
