Now I know for sure where it was I saw the photos that made me apprehensive 
about hiking up Grandfather Mountain. Glad I gave it a try anyway.

I have noticed that (some) folks here are drawn to that, as I recall,
sometimes from afar and repeatedly. Is it a PDML thing or just something
that PDML folks are drawn to? What’s it like? What happens? What do people
do?


Mostly sit around, drink too much, and make fun of Norm.
That and get Cesar so hammered that he sleeps through the gate opening.
And wait until it's about 3:00am in Britain and wake up Cotty.
Good times.

Thanks, Ann. I didn’t even notice that “bit of something.” Thanks for calling 
it to my attention. I usually crop to get rid of things like that, but I’m not 
sure I can do that with this image, and I’d rather not anyway. I suspect 
there’s another way, something I haven’t tried. Do you have a suggestion? 

BTW, all those images were shot with my iPhone. Viewing them on the phone, I 
was disappointed. When I got em into Lightroom, I was impressed. Turns out when 
viewing RAW images the phone the Apple Photos app shows the preview, not the 
actual image. The apparent depth of field surprises me. At least most images 
sharp throughout the distance from the lens. My main disappointment with the 
phone as camera is the extreme wide angle of the lens. The web tells me it’s a 
30 mm-ish equivalent focal length. Even when shooting landscapes there are 
times I’d like a narrower field of view.

I’m a little over a week back from a month spent camping and hiking along the

Beautiful, I would say, because the designers and builders took their cue from 
the landscape. Once a week or so I’d go off the Parkway, get a motel room, take 
a shower, and do laundry. With few exceptions the contrasting ugliness of big 
box and franchise restaurant development that I experienced made me want to get 
back to the Parkway ASAP.

In preparing for the trip I purchased a 52.8 ah battery that I could charge 
with my car and then use to keep my devices charged. Unfortunately, the usb 
chargers I purchased to keep my camera batteries charged did not work. The last 
1/2 to 2/3 of the trip I had to rely on my iPhone for photography. I use an app 
that lets me manually control settings and record images in RAW. I’ve been 
impressed with the results since getting the images into Lightroom.

I haven’t put up a Flickr album yet, but I’ve been showing this image to friends 
pretty 
often.

And what is the name of that app?

I’m a little over a week back from a month spent camping and hiking along the 
Blue Ridge Parkway, from the north end to the South. What a beautiful place. 
Beautiful, I would say, because the designers and builders took their cue from 
the landscape. Once a week or so I’d go off the Parkway, get a motel room, take 
a shower, and do laundry. With few exceptions the contrasting ugliness of big 
box and franchise restaurant development that I experienced made me want to get 
back to the Parkway ASAP.

In preparing for the trip I purchased a 52.8 ah battery that I could charge 
with my car and then use to keep my devices charged. Unfortunately, the usb 
chargers I purchased to keep my camera batteries charged did not work. The last 
1/2 to 2/3 of the trip I had to rely on my iPhone for photography. I use an app 
that lets me manually control settings and record images in RAW. I’ve been 
impressed with the results since getting the images into Lightroom.

I haven’t put up a Flickr album yet, but I’ve been showing this image to 
friends pretty 
often.
