Photography News: Nikon Cine Lens Teaser, NAB Show Deals

When you return from a trip, do you like to wait a little bit before looking through your photos, or do you open them right away? I admit that I like seeing my photos right away while the memories are fresh – but I also make sure to to revisit those folders several months down the line to sort through the images I might have missed the first time, once the “newness” has worn off. In that spirit, even though I recently returned from a big trip to Nepal, here’s a photo from last year’s Badlands roadtrip that I just found again this week.

We’re at 1150 m above sea level, roughly where the jagged landscape of countless rolling hills begins to rise into steep slopes, culminating in the nearly 5,000-meter volcanic peaks of Pichincha and Atacazo or Cozarón.
