MJL Posted September 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2014 Thanks guys. Glad you enjoyed the vid and pics On this trip I took a total of approximately 487,000 pictures (mostly time lapse) using 2 GoPro Hero 3+ and a few DSLR cameras (Between my dad and I we had 4). We were definitely geared up to document the trip.LOL What an eye you have MJ. Beautiful. What an experience with your Dad. If I remember you were ill. How are you feeling? better I hope? It's a trip my dad always wanted to do. I bought other provincial licenses to fish along the way so I was up for the drive and the fishing.LOL Back at the beginning of July, I got news that my CT scans, X-rays, bone scans and blood tests were clear (aside from a few fractured ribs - not sure how that happened) and I celebrated my 1-year cancer free anniversary by buying a new camera & lens Feeling great and I hope to be out a lot more. Cheers Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
