Nature landscape photography is pretty simple: bring a camera to some interesting place, point it at something pretty, and press the shutter button.
On the other hand, the hiking part is less trivial… To climb mountains encumbered by 5 extra pounds of equipment, to navigate obstacles with only 3 limbs while constantly protecting my invaluable and fragile camera, to be fast enough to hike and photograph while everyone else focuses on hiking… that’s what has taken a bit of training.
