Joshua Tree National Park

A couple of weeks ago Cheryl and I took the long drive to 29 Palms. We went to be a part of a reunion of sorts with Josh, Stephen, Thomas and their cousin Nick Johnson. Nick is stationed at 29 Palm. We all went out to Joshua Tree National Park Saturday. Rock climbing, picture taking, just enjoying each other’s company. The picture below is of one of the rock mountains the boys climbed. Hard to see but the four of them are on the summit while Cheryl and I enjoyed the view. What a beautiful place. I’ll upload some more pictures later.

A Journey Begins

Most of the time when a trip or journey begins you have some idea where it is headed, although we never know where it is going to end up. That’s exactly how I feel about this latest “adventure/journey” Cheryl and I are on. We’ve invested a lot of time and some money in getting better at taking pictures. The people listed below are a small list of those who have been helpful, instructional, encouraging and challenging.

As time goes by I know I’ll keep adding to this list.

Our next great adventure is to photograph the wedding reception of my niece Sarah Stiles and her fiance Evan in Hawaii. I know tough duty. Josh, Cheryl’s son, is the one who lit the fire under us last Christmas by giving me his old Canon Rebel. After close to a year of trying to view the small screen on the back of the Rebel we bit the bullet and bought a new Canon 5D Mark II. Now that was one big step! I’ve been busy trying to learn how to properly use this great blessing from the Lord. Last night we froze on the back porch getting flash exposures to come out clear.

We would both like to travel and do the photography thing full time but until that is possible we continue to wait and look and learn. Sounds like a never ending process. When you think of it, that isn’t a bad thing. : )
