To be honest, I’m not really a full outdoors type of guy. I’ll go, but I won’t be the one to initiate a hike or something. However the time I spend in China changed me. I hiked up the highest mountain in China. Yes, all the way to the top and when I cam back to the states everything else seemed so trivial compared to the monstrosity back in China :) Anyway through a change of heart I got a few of my family members to hike with me to a local canyon. Eaton Canyon. It was something small and good enough to get me back into the hiking mood again. Unfortunately, hiking in the morning really throws off the white balance (maybe the new Nikon D700 firmware fixed this) in photos so I decided to make these photos a black and white set. You can see the rest in color. So enjoy…
