Large Critters - Gordon Wisconsin

Last year, about this time, I decided to buy a "wild game" camera to take pictures of the animals wandering around our "Pagac's White Pines Resort" cabin near Gordon Wisconsin.  I was inspired by a sale price on one particular camera at Amazon.com and ordered this one.  It was selling for about half-price on that particular day.


Since it is built on cell-phone camera technology it leaves something to be desired in terms of quality.  Fixed-focus lens, slow shutter speed, grainy quality to most of the pictures, and so forth.  But, after all, it was designed just to let a hunter know how his salt-lick or bear-bait scheme was working.  A full-frame picture looks like this:

And with a little cropping and enhancing in Photoshop, it did show off a lot of local visitors.
