I took this during a tour of Laos in March 2014. It is a stitching together of four photos and considering I was using a monopod and not a tripod I was very pleased with the result. The monopod doubles as a walking stick which is helpful on the rough uneven terrain. Using a zoom lens during travel reduces the weight of the camera bag which has become more important as I age and back problems increase.
