Timing is Everything!


Just got home from central Illinois where I was with Chris Brackett, supposedly shooting some Max-4 gear. Day one rolled in as one big, flat, steel gray sky. You couldn't tell where the sun was, the clouds were so thick. Not the best for photography. We waited till the afternoon hoping things might improve and finally decided to just go and shoot. The locations were great! Better than I had hoped for. However, I just could not overcome the light, or lack of any real directional light. Later that night, the snow came. About 8 inches. Morning brought some high clouds, great for photos, but now all our duck hunting locations were under 8 inches of snow.


Day two we had a chance to shoot some foul, (rather than fowl), weather gear for a couple of other clients. That actually went fairly well and we nailed a couple of really good pix. Part of the second day's shoot was also video taped so once it's edited, I'll post a clip here.


While there, Chris also hooked me up to do so work for an up and coming country singer by the name of Tyler Farr. (http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=67981733) Were' looking to shoot some initial pix in the next few weeks in Nashville. I can't wait! I love Nashville! Any excuse to get there is good for me. Just something about walking up and down Broadway I guess.
