Leach Bontanical Garden 2014 03 (Mar) 07

Hiking time: 175 minutes and 22.35 seconds, or 2 hours and 55 minutes. Parked in Leach Botanical Gardens parking lot, right on Brookside Drive, left on SE 117th Drive, right on SE Flavel St, left on SE 112th Ave, left into Willamette National Cemetery to highest point, back to right on SE 112th Ave, right on SE Lexington St, left on upscale 120th Pl, right on SE Flavel St, left on SE 122 Ave, back to car.

This is a very hilly hike, basically on the north side of Mt. Scott. It is very photogenic, especially for being only along streets. Some of the roads are ludicrously steep. I had to laugh at the base of these hills, at the prospect of the daunting task before me, but I survived.

Took 76 photos using manual focusing at 85mm, of which 48 made the cut. This time I had the highest percentage of keepers when using manual focus only. But the tripod was very seldom off pavement (solid ground) and I calibrated manual focusing at home before I went out on this hike.
