I didn't wear a hat, but should have. My critique is that you needed to clear the foreground of detritus ... no, not the guys, the stuff on the table! And make the first two remove sunglasses. It is clear that you were the most advanced of the portrait shooters.

Oh that card!.. Sat eve we were tinkering with gear, and the card may haev ended up in my camera. No worries, I have sent it to Costco for 16x20 development, and as soon as it gets back, I will be able to tell if it was the wrong card or not.

:p... It was awesome to meet you in person Scott.
And don't worry, that snap of you hugging Robert will be seared to my eyelids for the rest of my life (unfortunately). ;)

... oh, oh, oh, plus the brownies ... Mo's brownies ... there were fist fights over the brownies!

I'll admit to getting the last bite while cleaning up - OK, in the kitchen watching Marna clean up. I got caught and had to split it with Anna and Rachel though.

And the hummingbird ... I wish I had a picture of the hummingbird shooters all sitting in a row at the new table ... Marna's hummingbird was a hit.

For some reason there was some camera shyness amongst many of us. The hummingbird(s) got most everyone to get their cameras and long lenses out. If there was ever any question of a camera emitting any force it was put to reset. The hot lips salvia (external link) bush (not to mention the hummingbird) would have been destroyed.

DwightMcCann wrote in post #6094045 (external link)
Oh, wait, that's not all! The studio lighting lesson with Marcie ... it was SRO with lots of hot, er, ah, no, um, old models!

This was worth the trip alone. Model wise, I'm just happy to not be charged for any damage of equipment caused by the model quality. Did the stool get back into the kitchen?

Lord, it was just like being at home!

I just shot them in their natural state, Dwight. Nothin' fancy.......I wasn't getting paid this weekend.
