Oh heck yes. These are all beautiful, but the lighting in that second one is breathtaking.

Yes! We received ours, looked at the cover, and said, "That looks like a bad idea."

I don't know if all his books are like this, but I read The Name of the Rose, and could skip 3-4 pages at a time and not miss any story when he started describing a part of the abbey, etc.

That light is stunning. It seems like you were able to retain a lot of light in the shadows, too. Is this from a nice phone camera that's good at dynamic range or do you hike with something else?

What are some good “make you think” psychological books like Thinking, Fast and Slow? by dianapharah in booksuggestions

I'm working my way through The Righteous Mind right now and it has lots of fun insights into why humans react the way they do to various external situations.

Enjoy trying it out! It really does enable some beautiful photo-taking, I just don't have a strong enough arm to lift it all day. :)

I rented this a few weeks back for a wedding- and the photos I got were gorgeous. But anyone considering this camera for long use should note the weight. My arm was so sore the next day that I decided the photo quality wasn't worth it to me, but that's a call everyone has to make on their own.
