It starts with small lies about distances and hiking times. Then it devolves into raging untruths like "just 10 more minutes...", you know you've done it too. I drag Amanda up a mountain on the bleak off-chance that we might get some good light. Landscape photography does require some level of optimism but this is bordering on delusion. Luckily, she falls for my lies but who am I really trying to fool? After a brutal slog to the summit I frantically run around trying to find compositions before the light hits only to be frustrated at every turn. I almost give up all hope but Amanda's 'light dance' seems to do the trick and for a very brief moment we are rewarded with light rays in the valley of autumnal majesty. What's in today's crumb catchers and will I actually delete the comment about my wife's urgent need for Preparation H? There's really only one way to find out.
Thanks for watching
