Lessons learned on this trip - 1) Its hard to take pictures in the dark (especially when the largest aperture you can get is 4.0 @ 17mm and no remote shutter release) 2) Wind will mess up even the best focus (and no the IS lens will not help that). 3) Plan more time when taking pictures in the dark because Chris likes to take 3-5 min. exposures .... which leads to #4. 4) Rushing up the Rock Scramble to get to the summit before the sun comes up because we took to long at the first false summit - SUCKS. 5) Tortellinis and black coffee at 6:30 am = Incredibly Awesome. 6) Long exposures (1/2 - 1 sec. or more) of waterfalls with alot of water, and a tight in shot, stink as the shot over exposes and generally turns into a soft blurry mess. 7) The term "Silence is Golden" can be extended to cover the "noise" generated in Digital Photography, however, this noise can not be cured through the use of duct tape. That is all.
