I wrote about Stanley Glacier in Crow Boy, but I had to write the description from memory and research, as my asthma was too bad to be able to hike up to it. This year, to my great pleasure, we made it. We didn’t hike to the foot of the glacier; I was already taking a risk pushing as far as we did, but we hiked into the valley and got what we thought were great photos. Unfortunately, they were all washed out under flat light. We did get some nice flower photos.
I’ve been struggling with close up flower shots, and wondering what kind of camera could do a better job. Then I discovered the magic button on my camera with the flower sketch on it for close ups. It’s amazing!
Here’s an Indian paintbrush, named because it looks like it’s been dipped in paint.
