bwanamrmCool trip!

Fallow BuckBwana,
It was serious fun!! It's a lot of shooting in a couple of days and some awesome food. You can't go to Catalonia and not eat well.
BWW, it was indeed tortila, and was great. I make it here sometimes with some spinach folded through or some Chorizo dices into the onions.

bwanamrmThe Missus and I simply must do this one day! We fell in love with Spain a couple of years ago... food, culture, it is all there.

Fallow BuckSpain is indeed beautiful.
What rely strikes me is how everyone involved is passionate about the hunting, the hospitality, and generally embracing the good stuff in life.
Being mediteranean myself I love the culture, and understand the ethos, but Spain is so varied in its own right that there is always more to see.
I'm hoping to get back for a monteria this year if possible either in Spain or Portugal. The community aspect of the hunts is a real draw.

Fallow BuckNorseman,
I assume you mean the tail on the Vizsla? I'm not sure to be honest. Occasionally you find dogs that were not docked either due to regulations or some such. Tail docking in the UK has become very regulated and although there is an exemption in the law for working dogs, some vets will not carry out the procedure.
I don't know what the situation is in Spain.
The camera was a Nikon D40X with either the 18-55 or the 55-200 lenses on it. To be honest I have been thinking of upgrading but I am not really good enough to justify it given the camera is not the limiting factor!!
I wasn't sure if the faster processors in newer models would have an impact on the final output or not.
I have fun playing with it though.
Rgds,
K
