Boards Archive] |
Welcome to the Vault Network
forum archive.
This is not a complete archive, time didn't allot us the
opportunity to properly backup the majority of the boards
deemed "expendable". Most boards on this list have at least
20-40 pages archived (non-logged in pages, 15 topics per
page).
Popular boards may have as many as 250 pages archived at 50
topics per page, while others deemed of historical
signifigance may be archived in their entirety.
We may not agree with how the board shutdown was managed, but
we've done what we could to preserve some of its history in
lieu of that.
Please enjoy the archive.

This article was in The Daily Mail today (horrible newspaper but often has some great articles about photographers) and is worth a look, the photos are simply stunning and the set up is inspired...

That's an incredible pic, but how does the bat even manage to get near the pond? LOL

I am glad they labeled the photographer I would have never figured out what that was.

I would guess that the bats swoop in to pick insects off the surface of the pond, and perhaps to take a drink, though that seems too badly inefficient to be a good reason.

OMG....I am such a moron! I just realized those are leader lines and not some kind of string or something going across the pond. That's why I wondered how the hell the bat could even manage to get close enough to the water for a pic! LOL
