Okay, now don't panic as we only hitched a ride on the clay shooting truck to get us to the mountains.
The only way that we could get access to the far side of this 4000 hectare farm, was to be members of an activity that could cross the off limit boundaries. So, there is an activity called Clay Shooting Adventures and after we pleaded and explained that I only wanted to take photos of nature, the management kindly relented and invited us along for the ride.
This was our taxi and as we waited for the gun crew I picked my spot for the trip. A bad spot because of the bumps and ruts in the road, but perfect to get camera shots during the ride.
The first kilometer was a nice ride on tar between fruit trees, grape vineyards and other lands of produce.
But then we entered the real dirt road with the bumps and grinds. During some bumps it felt like my spine would fall out hahaha.
I suppose one of these giants would sell at a price equal to that of a new car.
At stages on the 3 kilometer dirt road drive, this was the road behind us.
Finally we arrived at the clay pidgeon shooting range.
As 
The sound of this baby when it was fired and the echo so near the mountains would also instantly block your ears, as it did ours.
But we were here to shoot with my camera and this is one of the views, with the ocean in the distance.
So yes, I took some great photos here and also got some lovely bird shots. In fact I will post the bird shots as Part 2 of this post in #featheredfriends a bit later today.
Here below is one example of the bird shots that I will post in part 2 at #featheredfriends today.
And for now, I will love and leave you until later.
