Arriving at about 7:00 AM in the park, the clouds were still lin­ger­ing around the peaks. I wasn’t sure if it was going to turn into a very rainy day, but it started to clear up within an hour or two. The low light really played havoc with my slow tele­photo. I had to use the tri­pod and shoot at ISO400 to get any­thing decent. Noise, bleh. I never used to care about 400 or lower, but iStock made me afraid to shoot at any­thing above 100. Not that I have sub­mit­ted any­thing there in months.

Feeling really sick this morn­ing and I don’t know why. It’s very non­spe­cific. I feel alter­nately chilly (as in hav­ing chills) and light headed. I am think­ing fever but I have too much work to get done to really slow down and check my temperature.
