Here's the LINK (click on the word link) for how to get from the Lee Hills Hall building to the Rock Bridge State Park.

Inspiration
Magnum photographer Paolo Pellegrin produced a project that includes a number of images that were shot with one or more flashes - bounced and direct. Pellegrin is an exceptional photographer who prefers to produce a photographs that have an "unfinished" look. I like his style, and I certainly like the way he uses the strobe.

Welcome
Dear gang,
I see a lot of light in your near future. Artificial light. Some natural light. Colored light. Just a whole lot of it. All you need to do is to learn how to master it, and all we are going to try to do is take you to that level. It's not easy, but it's not as hard as it might seem either. It's all about patience and perseverance. Practice, practice, practice, and don't fear failure because it's part of the game. A missed shot is nothing more than another brick on the foundation of your future great photographs.
I hope -actually I am positive- that we'll have a lot of fun together.
