Photographic hunt

	A camera and two flashes (one is outside the shot) were protected with some towels, bags of plastic, cloth and rubber.They were applied to an oak, they're ready to pass the night along a path practised by badger.
	This is a simple photographic trap, it wasn't camouflaged on purpose, and it was connected to the equipment described above. A badger (meles meles) came at the night and it moved the trap and did itself a photograph.
	The detector to the infrared or of "hot bodies" is a sensor which reacts to a quick temperature change, it is also possible to say that it reacts to the heat of a human body. When it is used as a photographic trap, as soon as an animal comes in front of his action range it is noticed it and a relay is excited creating a contact. If a twisted-pair small cable connects relay to the outside click of a camera, the photo is done. This in the photo is a kit I bought in the years 80. The box measures cm 12 x 8 x 6, the circuit is inside found, insulated to protect it from the damp. It is fed with a little outside battery from 12 volts and can notice a mouse at about a meter of distance and a person about the ten meters, his field corner is of 15 - 20 degrees. It's advisable to use it in the days (or nights) without wind. The sudden air temperature changes would be noticed and some useless images would be realized.
	This image was done with a second camera attached to the first (one aren't visible) and that worked in the same instant. The photographic trap (photo sensor over) is at about a meter over the subject.
	This porcupine (Hystrix cristata) is the subject described above, it was photographed by the first camera.
	In this box, of about cm 15x10x10, there is a detector to the infrared, it is like the one described above and fed by a little battery from 12 volts. It is newly building and bears better the temperature changes; furthermore I he modified to use it with one digital Nikon D70s reflex camera. The camera goes in stand-by when it is attached to this photographic trap, but however it is always ready for the click.
	This is a simple photographic trap, was done with two cables, long four/five meters were connected to the outside camera click. The subject stands over the trap and has the two threads touched myself. The photo is done!
	The same trap was mounted here. In a different way but with the same working.
	This photographic trap can be used also with a digital camera. On the left there is a little clamp where can be put of the bait, or also a twig which crosses the animal's path. With a light pressure, in every direction, this clamp makes the camera work.
	This trap is composed of a twig (taken on the place) and was applied on two thin layers of copper of an old switch. As soon as the two thin layers touch themselves, they create a contact which makes the camera work. To do that, a light twig movement is necessary.
	This image was done with the trap described above.
	I built this sholder mount to photograph the little insects. I put a digital camera Nikon D70s to it above with Nikon manual objective 105mm, a tele converter 1,6x and two extension pipes. With these accessories the field depth is much reduced and the focusing is difficult, this frame helps me very much.
	Image scrap of a little spider which I photographed with the accessories described above.
	The same sholder mount I can use it also with the telephoto lens.
	This very sholder mount is quite versatile for several situations.
