I was showing David the first year of BBA and you pulled the “Dog & 2 Hunters” portrait. You said “that’s it, go get more of those”. Thanks for the advise. Hope to see you this spring.

Good work and ‘good on you mate.’

I wouldn’t mind the damn mosquitoes swearing so much, but they kept doing it in front of my mother, who doesn’t like listening to that sort of thing.

Anyway, I really like the line about the mosquitoes swearing like everybody else…

must learn to proofread before I hit the submit button. I keep telling myself to do that and I never do, dammit!

I know that because I was there on the Fourth of July weekend back in 1989 to see my youngest brother marry his now ex-wife. What I remember most about that weekend, beyond losing the pool on how long this clearly disastrous mistake of a marriage would last, was the heat and the humidity. New York in the summertime can be extremely uncomfortable, but I’m pretty sure that I’ve never been anyplace where the mosquitoes were sweating along with everyone else.

Have traveled that road twice….from Miami all the way to New Orleans…For sure a different kind of Florida than say Miami, Orlando :)
There is an interesting side and you could say the other side of the coin that I find fascinating to “Old Florida” the one from the 1920’s
Here in Miami you have pockets and remnants of that era in cities like coconut grove, miami springs and coral gables to name a few….the more affluent parts of the story of the “South” you could say….

It took place on the ocean, involved several different boats lined up with celebrating people who wanted to express their joy to my camera. The pictures were hard to take, because the boat was going up and down with the waves and sometimes I would get what I wanted in the frame and sometimes not and I had to shoot with a high shutter speed because of all the motion and that meant high ISO.

I love my Canon 5D Mark 3 cameras but they have a terrible feature. In situations where you are moving fast and furious, bumping into and rubbing up against things the little dials will change your settings and you won’t even know it until it is took late. That is what happened here. When I was done and all the boats went back to their business, I took my first look at the images. It made me sick. All were super overexposed – pure white LCD, with a few darker lines running through it. I could not bring the boaters back together and I wondered how I would explain this to them later.

But Lightroom brought it all back. The boaters will never know the difference. Only a pro will ever look at the images and know they were once overexposed. Had the same thing happened with film, there would have been no hope at all for those images.

Better than that, take the old coast road from Tampa up to the Panhandle.

Love it. FYI, the Blue Marlin Motel is in Key West. Thanks Bob

I agree with you that there are many negative aspects that I could have focused on while touring the South. No different than Blues, Booze & BBQ. The Mississippi Delta is one of the poorest and under developed areas in the country. I prefer to focus on the positive aspects of life in all of my projects. However, both sides need to be explored.
All the best
