I agree. Going back. Friend wants to too. The view is just too fantastic
not to do again.
I THOUGHT I had it permanently on the camera, which is why I was so
self-ticked off. I forget why I removed it, but {sigh} live and learn. Now I
will
double check.
Thanks, Bruce for the comments. I couldn't decide if the fog detracted or
added. Since it was there, I decided it added. Heh.

Well that's just fabulous, despite technical hassles. I love the colour
and light in that image. You have just *got* to get back there with a
tripod when it looks like that again. Just wow.
BTW, I'm wondering why you don't just leave your QR plate attached
permanently? I have one on each body and they've never left them since I
first screwed them on.
