Is it a secret what lense is used - and maybe shutter and app. ??

So we newbees can learn something ?

Steve M. Sieren September 13, 2007

Thank you everyone. The focal length was 18mm on a D70 with the kit lens 18-70mm. f16 or f22 at somewhere around a second. Everyones camere will very in exposure time depending on the lens used and iso speed. The peak has no name. The unnamed peak are assigned a number. I don't carry maps when I hike into the Sierra unless I'm responible for bringing someone back and I don't always return the same way I came. I run into a lot of Pacific Crest Trail hikers up there with maps. You could call it lost but what do you call someone standing in a lake full of ice? #4784119

Steinar Kibsgaard September 13, 2007

Thank you, Steve, for the information about the gear and focal. #4784542
