    Talking Back in the mountains after far too long...

    Ok so I was hunting for the top of a mountain rather than animals, but I did see a few goats on the way up and this seemed like the best place to put some trip photos... bloody great to get up high again after some time off even if the legs were suffering!

    You are very talented behind a camera @GravelBen.
    The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds

    Norwester was blowing about 75km/h across the top, I was concentrating on not falling off!

    Fantastic Ben.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms
