You put great points out there, Sarah. The romantic notions of travel that some people have can be arrogant and belittling of others at times, and I think it's an expression of each person's own world view on traveling. There are, for each of us, ways of traveling or touring that we don't appreciate as much as another. It doesn't mean that the other mode of traveling is wrong, or bad. It just means that we prefer something else. To each their own, and let there be more joy for it!

Ryan,
What setting mode do you use on your camera? Aperture-priority, shutter-priority, etc. (when you want to control the level of light)?
