M&M's picked out of the hikers power source...GORP!
On the trail to Chasm Lake (under Longs Peak in the background) in Rocky Mountain National Park. Right at about 2 miles (10,500ft, actually) high at this point. Breaking for some panoramics and a sugar boost!
Focal length 18mm from 18-70mm, aperture priority.

Thanks to everyone for commenting on my shot. the questions...
title
Rare Air=about 11,000ft above sea level, hiked 3.5 miles with an elevation gain of about 2,300 ft.
Inspiration(squared)=the view and mountain are insirational, not to mention the M&M's to inspire my depleted energy sources to continue on.
...ration=candy is a ration (food).
What appears to be a sleeve is actually my Suunto watchband (the watch with altimeter, barometer, compass, etc., etc., etc.
Anyone see the Beaver in this pic? Guess I could have titled it...Feeding the Beaver. Then no one would get it, unless you see him!??
nice shot... nice and crisp. refreshingly so. I probably would have cropped off the sleeve at the bottom, or had the subject push the sleeve up. Technically speaking, its the best i have seen so far!!!!
Wow, that is WIDE dof. Nice and bright, balanced composition, nice feeling. I wonder that with everything in focus that it feel too busy. My eye cannot settle on anything.
Great DOF on this one, nice colors, but I tend to see M&Ms as candy on the outside, hence I see no brownish milk and sugar goodness in the frame. The chocolate part is too little of the frame and hiddden so only those who know M&M's (which I grant you is 99% of the online world) know where the chocolate is. My other beef is that too much sleeve is showing, if you crop it out and just have hamd. mountains & candy, the candy jumps out alot more! Anyway two small quibbles in a lovely shot.
