I was joking. It looks really small in that picture. But I am sure they were yummy and satisfying.

I like the long exposure waterfall experiment. I'm a sucker for that kind of picture. It seems like a really nice place to hike, even if the bridges eat camera gear.

It fit just about a single serving of peanut M&M's so, it was perfect for me not to stuff my face - lol.

Thanks. It took about 20 tries to get it to come out to more than just a blob of white. I need to look up how to do it.

That's impressive how sharp that picture is if you were holding the camera by hand.

Yes, gives the picture a warmth a flash wouldn't.

Last one! Hammocks Beach State Park. Not much hiking and we couldn't get the ferry to the nearby island because of the storm.

Morrow Mountain is really rocky soil probably bedrock isn't very deep.
If I had those Vultures following me I would not pass go, but head for a hospital post haste.

Oh, and hell no keep them coming.

@glatt - I did hold it by hand. Thanks!

@Bruce - I loved the way the color came out. I pretty much never use the flash. I think it has its benefits more in the studio than in nature

The flash is handy outdoors when you have bright sun and want to show what's in the shadows but I agree with you for the most part.

True, True. I have used it to light up tree trunk holes with lots of anxiety.

Reviewing pics from 2 hikes today. I think you have been taking pictures too long when blue skies and puffy clouds bore you
