P.A. Kelly
1986
packed his photo equipment and headed for
Hastings. When he arrived it was getting
quite dark. He set up an infra red trip
beam across the carcass, used twin Vivitar
flashes and a 200mm len. on his Nikon
(placed on Robertson Creek Side of the Road).
Nov. 30
6.20am I am and I checked the carcass & camera.
8 shots had been taken. I finished my roll
of Kodachrome 64 (3c) on the scene. The I.R.
set up would not function properly anymore
so I an dismantled all his gear.
Cathy and I came back to the scene
around lunchtime and took(6) plaster casts
from the best pug marks. We also took a
loobrat cast as well. I also skinned this
deer's neck.
Nov. 31
I called Hastings and asked Mark Stanback
to remove the head of the deer and to freeze it for me.
A few days later.
Heard from Ian that we got 3 shots of an
adult lioness and 3 of a mid-sized cub. We
plan to publish a pictorial essay. Nat. History Perhaps.
