First off, apologies for the length of time since I last posted. I’ve been busy with my graduate studies work (which, fortunately, involves lots of cameras.. perhaps one day I’ll even have some nature images to share from that work). Anyhow, I was finally able to make a quick trip out into the wilderness again, …Read the Rest…
