Caught a rerun of some of Peter Lik s series on Landscape Photography . Incredibly interesting and I would think pretty neat for the MF landscape photographers .
First episode was in the snow in Montana ....take away ...jeez get in shape this guy was walking up hill in snow to over his boots with Gitzo /RRS head and his trusty Phase and Canon gear in a back pack that would hold a small child. Then he whips out his ice gear and climbs a frozen waterfall.
Second episode was right on the issue of back up . I think he was at the Arches (shows what I know ) and he has a guide to get a special up close angle . He cuts back his kit to just the canon and a 24-105 :loco: leaves the P65+ back at the ranch . So he is waiting for the light at dusk explaining you only get one shot at this ..maybe once in a lifetime ...he mounts the Canon and looks thru the viewfinder ..yikes the lens is shattered ! They show him hiking out in the dark . :ROTFL:
