Yesterday was a huge day. I'm only now finding a moment to digest everything and update the blog. In the morning we did a tour of town and visited the many photography galleries. One of the actual artists was present and was nice enough to share his newest work in progress and answer all sorts of questions from the students.

After our gallery tour we took a break for lunch and headed to the Center for the Arts for our first studio session. We covered basic camera operations and began processing images. Later in the evening I presented on my work and influences and John did a demo on large and medium format cameras. It was a huge day of photography instruction for everyone. We were all saturated with imagery and information by the time 10pm rolled around and headed back to the cabins for some much needed rest. Especially considering our ambitious plans to wake up at 4:30am for a sunrise shoot in the park. More on that in the next post.
