I was wondering about the 35mm prime! Got to by my second most-used lens. P.S. Great to see you on here, Alex.

I’ve been really enjoying this series, it's so cool to get a look behind the scenes and see what goes into creating these images. Also had no idea you could build galleries on Substack, that totally blew my mind. Such an amazing way to share photography!

Beautiful shots (as always). If you ever make you way to Colorado, I've got a husband that willingly rides 100 miles of gravel and LOVES IT.

Super interesting write up Alex, for inspiration and to compare notes - thanks for sharing! Also, that photo looks like Lac Blanc…I’m planning visit it next month for the first time as part of the TMB👌🏻

Are you using these lenses on a full frame camera? With an APS-C size frame I’d need to divide by 1.5 to calculate the ‘35mm equivalent’, right? So 35mm on full frame and 24mm on APS-C would be roughly equivalent?

Yes, all these were shot on full frame.

That was the first question that came to my mind too.

Wait! Is that from our trip around/near Chamonix and Mont Blanc? Circa 2019, your 30th birthday…??

It's from a trip in 2014 actually! But it was the same gnarly weather as our 19 trip.

The Sunday Athlete club, strong club name on its own right there. To your note, keep it the way you have it, sounds like your routine is always Dailed! Maybe competing would shift the love of why you do it in the first place? or take focus from the professional side. I’ve always found these events are always on the days of most inconvenience too.
