Winter Landscape Expedition

Following my classes on natural light, Staci signed me up for a expedition.  Although "landscape" is referenced it would be better named Ogden Valley Barn tour.  Don't get me wrong.  I loved it.  I just didn't see a whole lot of landscape to photograph.  We ended up going to about four different farms and learned why Jon Williams loves barn light.  I agree there is something magical about it.  We also got to eat and Eats of Eden, chase a couple of cats around, meet some real "salt of the earth people", enjoy some good company, and take some photographs. 




I know that they will never end up in a magazine, the important part is it was my real first chance to just go out and practice.  Hopefully I'll get better.  Eventually I'll learn how to photoshop.  I learned that it's always easier to take a good picture and not have to photoshop it, but I believe every  photo goes through some sort of edit.
