Actually, I did carry a Gitzo mountaineer tripod on my back up those 11,000 feet! And I used my Gitzo monopod for a walking stick. I tried lots of experiments this trip with bracketing, panoramas and different filters and needed the tripod for those. I intend to try some HDR combinations with the bracketed shots but that will have to wait until I finish going through all of the photos. I've also got some photos of the same area with the Canon 5D and the Leica R 19 lens. I want to compare those to the M8 shots. So many photos, so little time!!
