The least you can do when you go on such expeditions is to fit the strap on your camera and hang it around your neck so that you have both hands free, Richie.
The adventures of Biff is noted here, :). R. I carry my camera the same way, I rarely have it hanging around my neck. Thank you for all you do to bring us your beautiful imagery. Tigs♥ =^..^=
I've gotten a few good Stains on my Back pockets going for Shots in That kind of Territory, also! (Hint: the Branches with the Leaves are Usually the Strongest!) Some video might Entertain us, as Well...
Naughty naughty - no strap round neck. Your camera could get damaged if it tumbled down there ! Then again if you tumbled down with it around your neck it could get caught on a branch and strangle you. Such terrible dangers lol Just take care, we would miss your pictures so much if you injured your clicking finger.
My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust
Richie - I will not be the next one to berate you for not strapping your camera. ;-) There is no hill too high or valley to low, no grade too steep for a photographer. Thad
No pain, no gain is what I've always been told. Your hard work has paid off is spades Sir Richie! The proof is in the your post, I would have to say you are a expert photographer:)
