The view from the top of the Horn across the alpine country (this was just one aspect as the view spans 360 degrees)
|
A couple of very energetic kids who were at the top of the Horn with their parents when we were... this is them bounding back down the rock steps with dad yelling at them to slow down...
|
Mat, you inspired me... I noticed the lichen on the rock as we climbed down and crouched down to get a shot :)
|
My favourite out of all my shots across this trip... I really worked hard on this one and am so please at how soft this thistle looks...
|
This little fella flew in from across the lake on the sub-alpine plateau just to check if we might have some food... hehehe
He quacked his way around me and got so close... he was a real poser ;) |
You'd seriously think the colours were fake looking at this shot of the lake on the sub-alpine plateau... it's just so gorgeous
|
Tired from the day's walking and climbing, we decided to get a fire going... it was going to be 1 degree that night...
|
Ahh, the shot taken before the serious marshmellow overdose... lol... we got so sugared up from a few marshmellows each we turned silly... hehehehe

Great stuff, its really fun to be able to see random places that I will likely never be able to go! The hard work on #8 turned out very well! I like it a lot! I like # 12 too, very calm and pretty place for camping!

What a great set! The fourth shot is fantastic - love the depth of field. Mat will be impressed. :) The thistle is great as well. Excellent job!

Another amazing set. Wow, that view is something. I like how you took us along with you with the kids and the foot :) and your friend. And of course the marshmallows! #3 really shows how steep it is!

Ah shucks Jess! Glad I could be an inspiration to someone out here, even if its just to shoot some lichen! And, what spectacular lichen it is! =) I'm loving that you guys took us along on our vacation. You and Andrea inspire me to do the same thing next time!
