In September of 2017, we were doing our first leg (450 km) of the Chemin de St-Jacques-de-Compostelle in France. For such an endeavor, minimizing luggage weight is paramount, so I limited my photography equipment to one camera, 2 lenses, and a few memory cards. In 35 mm terms, I carried a 24-200 mm F4 lens and a 50 mm F1.4. Portability is one of the reasons I love my micro Four Thirds gear.
One day, walking the trail and arriving near the river I was surprised by the lovely view through the brick and mortar supporting arch of the bridge. Looking at the reflections and the subtle color contrasts through this frame, I felt I had an intimate glimpse of the scene.
Hiking the famous Chemin de St-Jacques-de-Compostelle is not only good exercise, it offers great op-portunities each day to take marvelous photos and meet happy people who have come from all around the world, and to sample and experience the amazing French culture and scenery.
