:: Garden of the Gods

What a place.

Last week Thursday we took a trip as part our photography class to Garden of the Gods. It was incredible! I could've spent all day there, easily. Mountains are a part of creation that captivate me. They exceed all expectation.
Here is an overview of what I saw; a few images that describe the Garden well.


"And the waters continued to abate until the tenth month; in the tenth month, on the first day of the month, the tops of the mountains were seen."
- Genesis 8:5



Enjoy & leave a comment!

Looking ahead,

:: Family Shoot



As part of the photography class I took last week, our largest assignment was a client shoot. We had about an hour and a half to get 25 quality images of a family that was chosen for us. I was working with another student, and we both had to have 25 images each, in that amount of time. Ha - It was a test of our time-management skills, to say the least. Fortunately, working with people is something I thoroughly enjoy. That helped. Still though, it was a stretching experience!

This family was a joy to photograph. Their children were very sweet: the little girl was an introvert and wasn't a big fan of the camera. Despite that fact, she barely fussed and was pretty chill with being "in the light". And the little guy, who is 8 months old, was a complete extravert. It was great! He had the largest eyes, and didn't mind showing them off. :) It was a blast.

Chris and Valeen (Mom and Dad) were very kind and willing to work with me and the other student to get some great shots! It was a very good learning experience as a whole, and I am so thankful for it.


Looking ahead,

Ethan
