Day Nine


Friday was the first day of the workshop without a scheduled morning shoot. It was also the first time we had woken up to a cloudy sky since arriving. In a way, it was a relief. We all got a little extra rest and headed to the Center for the Arts at 10:00 am for a long studio session. The students were all very busy editing and printing images for their final portfolios', which were due the next day.

By late afternoon, the clouds had burned off and we all needed a break from the grind. At 6:00 pm we loaded the van and John's Subaru with gear and headed to the Laurance S. Rockefeller Preserve off the Moose-Wilson Road in the southern end of Grand Teton National Park. By the time we got to the Preserve it was cooling off nicely and the parking lot was nearly empty. Several of us hiked the 3 mile round-trip to Phelps Lake where we were treated with a sublime view as the late day sun peaked through the canyons. We returned to the Cowboy Village just in time to run over to the studio and open it up before 9:00 pm. I ordered some pizzas and we worked until well after 11:00 pm.
