Excellent series. Thanks for sharing. How do you repel with a camera? Was that for the waterfall shot?

Yes. Had 3 lenses and a tripod in my backpack. Repelling on a rope tied to a tree. That was the easy part....only about 20ft so my wife and I could get up and down relatively easy. The rest of the descent was still steep with slippery rocks and roots....with a backpack, your balance is way off so it becomes a bit harrowing.

Nice shot of cruise ship, Pride of America. My wife and I spent a week on her. Woke up each day on a different island. 50th anniversary trip couple years back. Thanks for the reminder of a special time.

Repell is to push away. Rapell is to descend a rope.
Sorry. I let the first one go thinking it a typo.

You are correct, but it is "rappel".
I picked up on the spelling also, but you beat me to it. It's a whole different meaning to say you "repelled" down a mountain. It means you pushed away.
