#NoRegrets. A friend of ours asked if we wanted to join him on a trip he was planning to #Norway. What were we going to do, say no?? We even saved money by camping in the phenomenally warm May weather - did you know it's legal to camp anywhere in Norway, thanks to their "Freedom to Roam" laws?
#NoRegrets. We took a guest who was staying with us on this wild hike to chase down a #waterfall. We had to traverse a tunnel, scramble across a couple rock slides, carefully descend the steep riverbank, and then follow the water upstream to this hidden nook. Fun day? Absolutely! A little crazy? Yeah.. Worth it? No doubt!
#NoRegrets. I had no idea what I was in for when our photo group suggested we hike to the top of #Zion's #AngelsLanding trail. I love surprises, so I didn't look into it. The original ascent was a bit grueling, but the view at the top was worth it.
#NoRegrets. We busted the doors at the #SeattleJapaneseGarden, and it's so good that we did! We chatted up a another doorbuster (and now new friend @jimnix), and for a while, we had the garden all to ourselves. Bonus: there was just enough cloud cover to make for perfect lighting. Photographically speaking, it's always worth getting up early!
#NoRegrets. Even though we were just barely too late for the #predawn light above #SeattleWA, I made the most of the available scene. The fog even later cleared, but I kind of like this eerie shroud.
#NoRegrets. I simply love my big 70-200mm lens. It's wonderfully sharp, and it lets me zoom in close. However, that sucker is *heavy*. And when we're talking a hike scaling up a mountain with loads of other gear already on my back, it's difficult to justify. However, there have been times when I wish I had it. In this instance, I was actually glad to have it in my bag, as I was able to capture this detail shot of #MtAdams. It might be heavy, but I love the pictures it takes.
#NoRegrets. I took soooo many pictures in #BryceCanyonNationalPark. Between the #hoodoos and the snow, the trails and the rich red rock, I was tickled pink just being there! Of course, that meant I had a lot to edit when I got back home, but every shot was well worth the extra work. This world truly is a #beautifulplace.
#NoRegrets. Most #Norwegianviewpoints had little trails spidering away from the roadside placards. My explorative instincts would immediately kick in, and I'd just *have to know* what was at the end of the trail. While others were shooting pictures, I dashed down the path for as far as I dared.. and I was never disappointed.
#NoRegrets. I just couldn't get enough of this #BryceAmphitheater. At all times of the day, it was mesmerizing. We really lucked out on our timing. We were able to catch some snow from a recent storm, but we left just before the area was hit by another. It was even clear enough to hike many of the trails! Now I can't wait to go back and explore the rest.
