Hi Yan,

I see you have not forgotten how to take a good photograph while you have been away

Welcome back,

Thanks Dave. It was a good experience to be in mountains. I found taking photos in mountains was quite difficult. It was hard to get good compositions, and light conditions constantly changed. Most of the cases, only telephoto lens was usable.

The vast outdoors a bit too vast, eh?

Dave, Doughboy, and tennischic05,

Thanks for your comments on these photos. Sometimes I myself could not work out which photo is better, so I need others opinions. For these 4 photos, #1 and #4 were taken in two different sunrise times, where the position for #4 was quite difficult to get there. My family members like #2 best which was the only photo taken using my 16-35mm wide angle lens during this mountain trip.

I like #2 but #3 is my favourite, I can imagine you hanging from a piece of rope just to get the shot. Fantastic.
