Trek Assessment #1

During the course of my first and second treks I did not run into any outstandingly stressful situations. The most aggravating situation I encountered occurred during my first trek. I often found sounds that were intriguing and exclusive but after attempting to record them they were repeatedly cluttered and drown out by background noise such as wind, traffic, or general city sound. With the addition of these muffling and distracting sounds the main sound I had intended on capturing became distorted and inaudible. Again, I had no prominent issues with my second trek; the only thing that was slightly bothersome was shooting images and video that followed with my light capturing strategies. I think I may have been over concerned and too focused on the strategies and it may have limited what I chose to take pictures of, but in the end I was happy with the results.
