Some more of my shoot from the hotel on Wednesday.  I didn’t get out with my camera on Thursday.  I was basically in class from 7:45 a.m. until 5:30 p.m.   Some of the classes were great but there were a couple that I really wanted to attend that were full.  I was late getting out of one session and by the time I got to the one I really wanted it was full and closed.

Of course there is only so much material that can be covered in an hour and 15 minutes.  So who knows how much I really missed by not getting to attend the sessions I wanted to.  I have a couple of classes tomorrow that I will make sure I will be there, even if I have to leave a session early to get to the one I really want.

The first image is a man-made water fall at the far end of the small lake on the hotel property.  I know that you are supposed to make a timed exposure so the water is silky smooth but that is not really representative of what I saw.  Besides, those images of running water that are smooth and blurry are not really to my liking. It doesn’t look natural to me so I just did it the way I like.  🙂

The second image is of one area of the lake (that I talked about yesterday) where the fish were so thick they were bumping into each other.  I know that it is not a quality shot but you get the idea of just how many fish are in the lake.

Finally who doesn’t like a nice spider image.  🙂    This actually was the first image I captured Wednesday evening.  I was just starting down the stairs to explore the lake and I saw this guy sitting down to dinner and decided to start my photography odyssey with him.

I’m home this evening.  As I mature I find travel less and less enjoyable.  I like the comforts of home (be it ever so humble.)  I hope you enjoy your Friday and the weekend as well.  Thanks for checking out the blog.  I was in a bloviating mood this morning, but as usual I do not have the time to pontificate.  Perhaps this weekend I’ll have more time to opine. 🙂

Be careful.
