Nara At The Top Of The Climbing Wall
I like the lens flare and the near HDR of the image. This wall is way taller than most men - standing up I could barely touch Nara's feet.
Helen Looking Up Mushroom
The contrast and natural vignetting in this photo really makes me happy. Can't say I planned it, but perhaps I'll look for this lighting more often.
Flare
Normally, there is no way I would use this picture - I generally don't like flawed image capture and the I doubt I could come up with a worse case of flare (the waterproof case had water on the front of it). That said, it gives you a pretty good sense of just how nice it was out there to paddle.
Shepherds Cabin
The Cabin is tiny - there is sleeping space for 1 and standing up would be a challenge. Apparently it was built by John and Frank Ronacher in the 1950's when they used the meadows as summer pasture for their sheep. It hasn't been used since the 70's and it's nearly falling apart.
