Air Force Memorial, Arlington, VA.
What an amazing weekend!
First was a workshop with the erudite and avuncular Tara and Ben from Hitched Studios @hitched2013.
My goodness.
They are like taking a warm sudsy bath in photographic knowledge, and love. With a bunny.
A smart, funny, engaging bunny who knows off-camera flash ratios and PocketWizards. And the latest trends in Wedding Photography.
What a terrific evening!
Next up: Shooting the Classic Yacht Regatta off Newport with @onnevanderwal. Can't wait to share the results.

Oh that chunky, plastic, 'Super-Wide' lens. Last in your camera bag, first in your hearts. You know you love her.

In her element
Maine Media Workshops [now +College!] has a small gallery and bookstore in downtown Rockport, Maine. I've sailed to and from this harbor many times, and simply love the tiny town.
I stopped by yesterday to see their exhibit of prints by Paul Caponigro of running deer fame and his son John. Paul was actually due to stop by at some point in the day, but I missed my chance to meet an icon. Darn.
What I did get to do was chat with Tim who was manning the store. We had a wide-ranging conversation of the kind that probably takes place every day between guys of our, ahem, age. Turns out we’d both run camera stores for many years, both got out well before the entire industry disappeared, and both had our observations about how fundamentally photography has changed, practically overnight it seems.
Turns out my new friend is Tim Whelan who’s second act after closing his store in Ohio was to open a well-known photo bookstore just down the street from where we stood. Having seen the writing on the wall a second time, the closing of that endeavour made national headlines and placed a perfect period on the thread of our conversation.
Honestly, if picturesque Rockport, home of an internationally respected photo school and summer destination of the well-heeled and precious, can't support a photographic bookstore then what hope is there for any of us?

Bit of a departure today from my usual outdoor work. Love the unexpected nature of this frame...the 'huh' when your eye first hits it.
