Did a hiking sports fitness photo shoot up Camelback Mntn. Loaded up with ~30lbs of photo gear (2 bodies, tripod, 4 lenses, 2 light stands, 2 strobes, etc) got lots of looks from hikers who thought they were having a tough time!

Chatted along the railed section with Charlotte Bobcats Assistant Coach Phil Ford. His buddies, the other coaches and an assistant from the Suns, were way ahead of him. Asked him to take it easy on the Suns next time.

We didn't make the summit due to shooting and wanting to get back into Echo Canyon in time to set-up for sunset. We timed it perfectly and were rewarded with an AWESOME fiery-orange sunset as the sun dipped through a gap in the clouds.

Perfection!
