Description

Difficult for me to photograph! Saw this small temporary pond to side of road up to Maroon Bells. I did not know there was a trail adjacent to road that would have met up with pond.
The high grasses were itching my skin and flies were buzzing everywhere! A nice scene but I hate the flies! Also, kept twisting my ankles in dirt holes and uneven rocks hidden beneath the tall grass! I think I'll stay on the hiking trails!

Exif: F Number: 3.7, Exposure Bias Value: 0.00, ExposureTime: 10/6400 seconds, Flash: did not fire, compulsory flash mode, ISO: 160, White balance: Auto white balance, FocalLength: 6.00 mm, Model: DMC-TZ5

Great camera position? What about poor circulation, a cramp, itching, and general fatigue? I took quite a few different shots there. I was so "involved" that I did'nt realize that my knees, anything that can move, really wanted me to stand up and get around! #8401447
