While I was on my way there, I realized I had forgotten my tripod. Normally, that's not much of a problem, but I was intending to shoot 7-frame bracketed photos.  I decided not to go back for the tripod when I remembered that I had my monopod in the back.  As it turned out, the monopod was very helpful. It's a lot lighter than my tripod and  while it doesn't perform like a rock, it did make a difference.  From what I could tell, Photomatix had no problem aligning my shots.I will always prefer the tripod, but in a pinch, or a hike, the monopod works well.[ATTACH]18124[/ATTACH]</blockquote>
