My son asked me to go out and shoot he and his girlfriend Danae. I gladly accepted... ;-D for two reasons.
1. To have fun with them. 2. To try to figure out the nuances of flash photography.
Well I certainly did have fun and I think they did also, but I also learned a ton about flash photography. After tons of failed shots I managed to get a few good ones...
So this whole purpose of this trip was... 1. To get away from normal life and to get refreshed a little bit. 2. To hike. 3. To learn some new techniques... 4. And to capture a certain picture that I had in my minds eye.
That certain picture was to be the majestic badlands (The grand canyon of the Midwest) in morning or evening light, you know, sunrise or sunset time frame. Well it was only the first evening that we were there did we get any light conditions like I was looking for. So while I did not get the perfect shot I was looking for, I did have a great adventure.
Four guys from the Twin Cities of Minneapolis and St Paul, went to the SD badlands for an early spring adventure. The guys were Dave Parker, Bob Martin, Barry Moore and moi (thank you Atlantys ).
It was 87F this particular afternoon and by the next morning it was 35F and the next day we had snow... ;-D

Have you ever wondered what in the world is there to do in and around the twin cities that is new and interesting and fun? Has the terrible recession got you thinking that you will not be able to take a vacation this summer but instead you will have to take a staycation instead to save money?
Well I have the perfect solution for you!!
The new Moon Minneapolis and St. Paul (Moon Handbooks)
travel book is full of all kinds of great things to do in the twin cities. Sure there are some of the things that you have already know about but still have not done, but there are also all kinds of things that you would never think of like urban spelunking.
So this is a must have book if you or your kids have ever said I am bored…
But that is not all, this book just so happens to be sporting one of my pictures on the cover of the book! The cover image is one of my most popular images, the classic “Minneapolis Stone Arch Bridge.” Now that is cool!!!
If you buy the book, feel free to let me know and then I will be glad to sign it for you. That way, you get a great book, a great vacation and a keepsake all in one fell swoop!!!
