So, here's the scoop. I took hundreds of pix on a *istD kindly lent to me by Cesar for the weekend. These are from but one day's shooting, which Mark put on a CD for me. I'm finding it ~very~ cumbersome and time-consuming getting my stupid computer to download them, so these are the only two so far. This particular disk doesn't really have many photos of PDML-type folks, mostly it's just some "animals in habitat" (there's like a little zoo on the mountain) and a pile of pix of me and Mark hiking/climbing.
About the latter. Mark's (what I would consider) quite an advanced hiker. I barely kept up, but I'm quite proud to say that I did, but I get the feeling he could have left me in his dust at any time. We ended up scaling two of the three peaks of GFM, and the view was spectacular. GFM is the tallest peak in the Blue Ridge Range, so it quite felt like we were at the top of the world. These two pix are among my faves from that hike. This one's of Mark, photographing a big hanging rock thingie: http://www.photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=3433468&size=lg And, here's Mark (or my interpretation of him) at the first peak): http://www.photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=3433485 More to come, probably later in the afternoon, as I have to go do some laundry now... cheers, frank -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson
