Last week Jan and I went camping for the first time together. It was great. Getting away from all of the regular stressors was amazing and so relaxing. Sleeping where I didn't have a streetlight shining in my window was the best! Here are a few shots from the trip:

The last few are long exposures that I took on my Canon s90, I used a high ISO and 15 second shutter speed to capture the little light that was being thrown by the fire.
I cannot stress how much I want to go camping again! We had so much fun. On our hike (I didn't bring a camera) I saw a porcupine climbing a tree!!! It was amazing.
My only regret is that I did not take a film camera with me. By next time I will have acquired a cheap 35mm point and shoot that I will not be afraid to take hiking. I also wanted a break from taking photos, in a way it's tiring, thinking of how I need to have my camera ready all the time. On this trip I tried to focus on the experience, not how I would remember it.
