Is there any chance Clarence is Charlie's baby?
Could be, but I think Charlie was too young to reproduce; they're most likely siblings.
How's the new camera working out? Got any shots to share with us yet?
The idea of you deliberately making the trek as challenging as possible just makes me grin..
It also sounds like fun to me..
I was thinking the same thing. Can't wait to hear how this trip goes, SK.
The trip went great, better than expected. Before we set out, he took my advice and traveled light, which he was very grateful for by the end of the day.
He was blown away, truly, by some of the sights he encountered. He reminded me of a kid whose dream is to roam though a toy store and select whatever his heart desires. At times he'd lower the camera and close his eyes briefly as if to record scenes in his mind to later compare to his photos.
I know that look well, and it endeared me to him further and made me work harder to find areas where he'd have the most success.
Though I didn't shoot much, I'll share a few photos soon that show a range of subjects we encountered.
A monopod would be a lot more maneuverable for him if he's going to insist on a stability tool. Much less clumsy than a tripod.
That's true, but his intention was to squeeze in some macro shots (with a macro lens) along the way, for which a tripod would have been necessary.
