LWH was my first experience in the Swell, and I was captivated by it. I had hoped to return to the Swell in March, but the weather didn't do me any favors. I can't wait to get back and explore more. One of these days I want to begin training for true canyoneering.
This image in LWH was made with my 14mm, which has since been replaced by a 12-24mm. This ended up being among my favorites from the whole trip, and it's framed and hanging in the hall of our home. Even with the 14mm (equivalent to a field of view of about 21mm in film terms), I was pressed as far back into the opposite wall as I could get. The depth in the image is aided very much by the quality of the light.
My wife thinks a 10.5mm fisheye lens would be fun, and I agree. Of course, I'll have to re-hike everything if we get one. :nod:
