Need a pack mule for your gear?

I am one of those people that believes in packing all my photo gear when I go out to shoot. You just never know.
On my recent photo trek I came across some ice climbers.

After snapping a few shots with my 18-200 maxed out at 200mm, I decided I had to use the Sony A-350 with my Tamron 200-500mm. I took this image at 420mm, ISO 800 f/13 at 1/2000

Sony cameras also have built-in image stabilization, so shooting with the Tamron hand held is no problem.

I take everything along because I don't want to miss an image like this.

I mean seriously, who can pass on an ice climbing babe?
