The village of Oia in Santorini is one of the most beautiful places I've ever been. I was very happy for the expressive clouds on this evening. I used a Nikon 24-70mm lens, one of my favorites to shoot the scene, with the trusty Nikon D3s mounted on a Feisol CT-3442 carbon fiber tripod. This tripod weighs just 2.31 lbs. and folds down to 19" which is perfect for travel and everyday shooting. My gear packs away nicely in a Tamrac Expedition 5X backpack, very organized, easy for me to carry, and fits easily in the overhead bin for travel. My MacBook Air slips into a padded compartment, and there are lots of zippered pockets for photography essentials. I like gear that makes my job easier!
