Just a quick FYI, Next weekend has a bunch of opportunity for a lot of great shooting

Boulder City HS is hosting a High School and Jr. High School Rodeo starting on Friday till Sunday. Sunday a lot of the families have a long way to go to get home, so they try to get over as quick as they can. I shot this last year, HAD A BLAST, I got a lot of really good shots, You can get pretty close to the rails in a few spots.

Ok, I just read about this place in the RJ that comes weekly in the mailbox. In between Sedona and Jerome AZ is a town called Clarksdale. They have train ride that goes up through a place called Verde Canyon. Here is the website

The lady I talked to said that they have at lease 15 eagles and of those, 5 are maiting pairs. Some nests are visible from the train.

The train costs $90 for first class & $65 for coach/$60 if your 65+.

I had an idea that I thought I would share.

What if?? We were all given the same photo in a raw file, and given one week to see what we would do with it in post process? Everyone has the same file, and we all put our own touch to it?

We could maybe use this on a month that we are not able to have a speaker or maybe a saturday get together.

We all judge them (Some how) and see what happens.

What do you think??

I had the privilege of shooting on August 12th with Canon Explore of Light Rick Sammon and his wife Susan at Techatticup, near Nelson, NV.  Rick loves the old cars and yesteryear feel to the place.  He has a blog site that frequently has invaluable information about photography--tools, techniques, and tips.  He posted one August 15th about taking images with IMPACT, something I've always been concerned with in my own work.  How many of us take beautiful, pleasing, technically on-the-money images that just don't have much zip, thrill...IMPACT?  I do it all too often.
