Go Mats! It was fun breaking the Kinsman Ridge Trail, here are my pics from the hike http://www.huiyengchang.com/hike/07cannonballs/index.html GO MATS! Probably see you again this week! Merry Christmas!!

Spence and Maddi, so sorry to hear about your lost, my deepest sympathies to you and your family. I had the pleasure to meet Sunny twice in your backyard, my fondest memories of her was when she went after my plate, and then gave me that innocent look. And her beautiful smile. What a good dog.

Sorry to bring this thread back on top, but I found the story about Saba thought I'd share here.

Indeed a fun night hanging out with mountaingirl, giggy, SherpaK, arm, Stev-o, Abster, Dr. Dasypodidae, Walter, Will, nartreb, Mats, Dave and Gillian (I think that's it, right?). Mats, Dave, Gillian, mountaingirl and I stayed until around midnight, and I'm glad to report that none of us was...

Hmmm... I just remembered that the last time I was at Burren, the music was very loud, hopefully not so tonight. The worst we could move to Redbone or Starbucks :) across from it. See you folks tonight, I plan to be there around 6:30PM, Burren it is.

Sorry about the choice of venue, I should have give people more time to discuss before I made a decision. Any suggestion other than Somerville or Burren?

Alright, just checked with Lei, so it gonna be Thursday Dec 6th, 7PM at the Burren in Somerville. http://www.burren.com/map.html

As many of you know mountaingirl (Lei Wang, the real 7 summits) is on her quest to conquer the 7 summits. Just last month she summited Carstensz Pyramid, her number 4 out of the 7. Barely have the time to dry her gears, she once again packing up and ready to set off to her next adventure: Mt...

OK, so I got a chance to play with White Balance again on my Canon SD 600. For those who care, I finally figure out that at least for SD600 the Custom mode is the way to go when the light situation is tricky. In the SD600 cases, I would toggle the White Balance setting to Custom, then press the...

Dave my friend, I blame it to the darn day light saving time. Besides that wasn't my headlamp but Nif's car headlamp (for a change) :). And Mats, here is your new avatar:

Wow, what a great story, thanks for sharing. But of course, I'm gonna need some proof to validate the story. :D :D :D :D :D Seriously, that's a very cool story. :)

Looking at the big picture, I think it is great to rescue a cat from a shelter, give it a nice big home and love from many people, share food on Thanksgiving dinner table, sun bathing on hot rock... Give it a chance to enjoy life outside of a cage or with a roomful of cats...

Great day indeed! Too bad we missed the other Santas, but nonetheless it was a great hike. I did take few pictures, the late autumn sun cast some very sharp shadows the clearly defined the every bumps and curves of the mountains, more beautiful than ever. Anyway, here are my share of the...

Hey Kevin, that's pretty cool how you lightened the snow. But I think it may have sacrificed the mood a bit. I'll remember your trick for my other pictures. Hope you PS users out there enjoy the link, there have many cool tricks there. Good day!

I'll be there after 6.

Well now that winter is approaching and most mountains have already put on their white coat, I found most of my hiking shots casted with a ugly blue hue. I have played with the snow mode and exposure compensation on my SD600, the result was all more or less the same, BLUE! Anyway I found this...

That was one heck of a hike, like a pu pu platter of outdoor fun. We did some bushwhacking, rock climbing, bouldering, caving, skating and tree hugging all in one hike. Awesome. Pictures D'uh, Skimon and I would be nicely tucked in while you'd be getting us coffee. decaf please, I need my...

Yea yea yea, rub it in with your fabulous shots of clear blue sky. We the creative type prefer views that require imagination ;). That was an awesome hike you have there, very envy but never regret with our choice to hike King Ravine, ours was fun in a less conventional way :rolleyes: ...

Just hike with Geri, she got all the healthy goodies with her and very generous about sharing :p. My hiking diet includes: Nature Valley bars, Hershey's nuggets, GU and Bagel Sandwich from MacDonald's or some mini croissants. To me is weight and packability. Bagels are very squeezable, and wont...
