I took this picture at the top of Marble Mountain, in Vietnam. It was a long climb to the top, and it was really hot that day, but, when I got to the top, the views were worth the long climb - the way the light was streaming down was beautiful. I took this photo with my point-and-shoot camera; it's just a simple camera, but, I think that the most important thing about photography isn't having expensive equipment (although that does count, and I'd love to have a better camera!), but in seeing, looking, and paying attention to what is around you. If I hadn't been looking, and paying attention to everything around me, I would have missed this beautiful shot.
