An ethereal mist envelopes our day's hike. I look up the slope of the moraine I am traversing, prompted by a call from my hiking partner Bryce. Lumbering out of the mist like the bow of a titanic ghost ship, a volcanic plug materializes. Snags of windblown conifer reach up like masts with tattered sails. Slowly, the sargasso soup swallows it back up, and I strain to see what else may emerge. In this mist that strangely hasn't left any moisture on any exposed surfaces, I find myself in a ghostly tunnel paved with an ascending jumble of rock immediately around me. Up ahead on the trail the smudgy movement of Bryce quickly blends into the mist.Air Travel for Backpackers

Unshaking Your Pictures
Being a novice photographer I thought it would be rather easy to keep a camera still while taking pictures. While at my brother�s college graduation, I volunteered to be the photographer thinking that I had the talent of a freelancer. I was using a 70-300 mm zoom lens so I could get right in his face from where I sat in the crowd. Finally the pictures were developed and guess what, most of them were blurry! So much for my steady hand.Expance for rest
