Few more from the Calendar. We did shoot all of these while the shop was still open because the manager didn't want to stay so the patrons got an eye full for 2 evenings. I got asked by at least 10 guys if we were doing it again after the first night. Let's just say the amount of customers doubled 2nd day.

This is why it's good to have a camera set up and ready, sitting in the passenger seat of your car:

Nice shots of the turkey Ron :-)

Man, Ron, your trigger finger is getting really good lately.

HERE IS WHAT HAPPENS when the kids of your model are better than what you came to shoot. Granted, none of the pressure was on the kid, but when mom went to change, I started shooting her kids. Nothing but gold nuggets. And MOM? She did alright.

You nailed it with those ones, Brad! :-) You have a real talent for photographing people. And thanks for the compliment, too. I read on a Facebook group that I belong to that this local landmark was on fire, so I drove over there and started shooting. Damn shame that it's gone...

how close were you for these? Were you shooting with like a 300mm or where you up in there? cool stuff man.
[Reply]

A 50mm, actually. LMAO! I was yelled at once by a couple of the firefighters to get back, so I did...
[Reply]

Hehe, Danger Mouse for sho. Great shots. I like to look at shots like these as a public service...
ITS GONE, and the last shots of it as it passed on were those. Kind of like my shots of New Orleans Arena,
before they put the huge SMOOTHIE KING CENTER on it. ech. Here is another example shot from Sunday
morning. I told the singer/model once we were into the shooting some, that she should not worry about
being stiff or plastic, since I would be sneaking in shots between the shots where her face was relaxed and
she would be more natural.....one of those shots here. Damn hand blur.

YES, always do that, cause if its a heavy Nikon with a good strap, you can bash the thing's skull in and serve
it for Thanksgiving. Can't do THAT with the Iphone.

Having carried Nikon F3s with motor drives and large element front lenses in a past life, all I can say is...True Dat!

Whew that lass has a pretty face - gorgeous eyes too.....

HAHA, let me tell you it gets harder. I was shooting Vanessa and told her that with this 24mm lens,
I was going to have to get really low and close, so if she wanted her underwear not to show,
she needed to be aware of that. She said, "Oh, I'm not WEARING any underwear."
A mother of 4, Nutcracker, I think you are safe.
