Week Three



Here are a few sample photos of the week. The rest are on my website. The week started with the studio work shooting the water bottle. Most of Group A traveled again to Garnet Ghost Town on Tuesday morning. The place was packed with photography students from Summer Intensive and an Intermediate class that was on a field trip. The floors move too much for long exposures when so many people are milling about. Not much success on that trip. Light3 on Wednesday was followed by a talk from the Canon rep. I ducked out (Nikon here) and started driving south on 93 to see what was down there. I passed Lolo, Stevensville and Hamilton. I saw this great mountain peak and took off west to find a trail. Put these coordinates, 45.855849, -114.296265, into Google map and you will find Troy Creek Rd. that leads to the Trapper's Peak trailhead. The switchback road climbed 2,000 feet and the climb up the trail was another 800 to 6,879.

Thursday was our longest day so far with computer in the morning, studio in the afternoon and lab from 7-11pm. We created slideshows of our work which were presented on the projector in the lab. Great fun and excellent work by everyone in Group A. Friday was our first Printing/Output class, and we all enjoyed the critiques in Visual Studies that afternoon. We spent the evening outside trying to play with light for our Photo Studies assignment. Now I am doing laundry and processing a week's worth of photos. Have fun viewing.
