I guess I'll throw my most recent camera exploit up here.
Basically, we hiked 4 miles (round trip) in the snow and spent two damn hours looking for the cave entrance (in about 5 inches of snow) to get one shot before my batteries decided to crap out on me (as in, broke. Not dead. Broken.).
This was the one shot. 30sec exp. @ f4
at least it was in focus, right?
