We had a tough day yesterday (Wednesday) with a lot of walking in rough terrain, a lot of uphill, with heavy camera bags. Today should be even tougher …

There were mountain hares in tons, and although not everyone was as approachable as we would like, we came pretty close on a couple of them.
After a few hours of intensive shooting, we could go back home in the strong wind and rain, but still with a smile on our lips. The camera bags was as heavy as before (luckily the pictures don’t weigh anything), but we couldn’t feel the pain …
