Last week Heather and I met Wade and Karen in Bryce and Cedar Breaks Canyons for a 5 day Photo Workshop. This is a compliation of the pictures I took. I learned alot about my camera and some of my lenses and had a great time. This is kind of a long video so if you get bored with it I apologize, but I had a hard time choosing which pictures to use and which ones not to. Even though this video is 26 minutes long, I did manage to chop 12 minutes off of my original attempt. Next year I hope to go to Victoria to Butchart Gardens for Jim's Macro workshop as that is more the type of thing I love to photograph. After 5 days of taking pictures of rocks, rocks and more rocks I started looking for other things to take pictures of. In one place you will see a picutre of a leaf on a bush followed by what looks like a log and some kind of vine. This was taken using Wade's 400 mil. telephoto lens of the vine of that leaf and it was amazing to see how that lens made it look like a huge log or something. There are also some pictures with my Macro lens of the bark of a pine tree, that not having known that is was a tree, you might would still be guessing.
There were many amazing trees threre to photograph also. One of them looks like a man carrying a cat, another looked like a deer and another looked like a dog. Nature is truely amazing the the sunrises and sunsets were incredible! Even though it was a huge sacrifice for me to go to the sunrises it truely was worth it in the end.
Anyway, I hope this doesn't bore you all too much and that you can find some appreciation of the creations of our Heavenly Father in these pictures as I did in taking them.
