this set brought to you with great gratitude to my friend K
he loaned me a Nikon D7000 and 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6 lens
these are probably my first pix with an interchangeable-lens camera since the 90s
and maybe my first pix with a non-phone camera in a decade
the beginning of another adventure
this was a 13 mile walk with 3000 feet of elevation change
the first pic is blaze orange since it is hunting season here in the Catskills
(an accent to the blaze orange pack cover and fleece cap and day-glow yellow windbreaker)
the duplicate shots in the Flickr album are experiments with ISO and zoom
