Beyond The Ranch, Part 1

So...
...with my interest in photography rekindled I set out with a point and shoot Canon in hand when I moved deeply into the wilderness where I managed a fly-in camp. The camp was intended for helicopter access fishing excursions but the proximity of mineral exploration and its related activity filled our camp with scientists, surveyors and support personnel instead; which proved to be good for the owner of the camp, who profited greatly while failing to keep his promise of recompensing me according to the increased work load. Life is like that though and when like a fool I returned for the second season I at least brought with me a Nikon D70 D-SLR that I had purchased during the winter off-season.

Today I will post some photographs I made with the Canon A70 point-and-shoot.
