Neither Jen nor I could decide which we liked better of this and the next photo. I like seeing Jen's expression in this photo and again, her hands always show respect and joy for movement.

This shot is better in that more of her silhouette is visible in the composition but I remember how long I made her hold this pose while I was fiddling with the settings.

Just when we thought we couldn't have any more fun shooting we both simutaneously starting kicking one leg up, then the next leg as we neared the end of our morning hike. I couldn't pass up shooting my favorite thing, shadows.

My hubby and me this morning on our training hike. Please, if there is a God, let Ray be fit enough to go on our Whitney backpack. Photo by Jennifer Clark.

My attempt at directing Courtney during our evening assignment where we had to shoot each other.

Our last assignment of the night (9:30pm), we broke into groups and photographed each other. Courtney took this photo of me with my camera.

Courtney certainly captured how much fun I was having.

Our classmate, Marcelle, happened by at the end of our shoot and missing an opportunity to photograph him was not going to happen.
I’ll be uploading more photos from the workshop in a few days. Zach Arias, our instructor, rocks!!!

Stacy and Linda heading out into the desert last week to shoot 'til we drop.
Hope I get back there soon.
Off to an all day meeting but can’t wait to post some more photos in the next couple of days.

Playing with off camera flash, Stacy begins to play for me.

She got her cartwheel but her pants didn't hold up so well! Rip!!!!!!!!!!!

Stacy has endless ideas.

And then it was my turn......my expression tells it all. I had a great time in Joshua Tree with my camera.
In a world of so many great photographers and writers, I am venturing into some unknown territories, leaving comfort zones, finally very willing to practice the art of seeing. By maintaining the practice of posting daily photos, I hope to continue learning about the possibilities that I trust are out there for the taking.
