Today I flew into Reno Nevada then drove up to Winnemucca, Nevada. Just west of town is some sand dunes that I knew would be ready for me to get some PIC’s. Today I wanted to test the D-800 more. Get the details if you will. I am thrilled with the resolution of the D-800. It’s been a while since I have had a crazy story to tell while photographing. With the dunes covered with wind created designs I thought of a great idea. Take my shoes off and walk across the dunes and photograph bare footprints in the sand. It turned out ok. I put my shoes back on without socks. I figured no big deal. Almost immediately something started to sting my right foot. I looked down and noticed a ton of fire ants all over the place. Ripping my shoe off I found ants all over my right foot. My foot has been in quite a bit of pain all night. Oh well. It was fun getting the shot!
