Do I haul her out for fun? Oh fuck yes 15 pounds of gear is worth it. Having photos at all is worth it, "good" ones not from a phone doubly so. I take my olympus digital when I go out.
An camera at the right time in the right place is the goal for dank landscapes and documenting nature, that also includes campfire reverie. The pro looking photos are a nice bonus but if you bother to do it at all with any care, there’s some work involved.
