I don't do anything spectacular, but I've learned not to expect much of my pictures when I do strenuous (for me) backpacking. Show people pictures of the view, wildlife, etc., and they say, "Wow!" "Beautiful!" "Oooh, I'm so jealous!" Show them pictures of me posing proudly on a peak with a beautiful view behind me, and they say, "Gosh, you look so tired!" "You look miserable! Was it worth it?" "Why do you do that? I'd rather go to the beach."

So I stopped showing people those pictures :-/
