After dinner, John Holmgren, who is my assistant on the workshop and is currently a professor of photography at Franklin and Marshall College, gave a great presentation on his work. He also brought along a bunch of prints from his recent projects on the Dempster Highway in Northern Canada and Dams across the U.S. The students really seemed to enjoy seeing the actual work.
It had been rainy and cloudy most of the day, but the sun seemed to be breaking out as it got later in the evening. We decided to head up into the park and give some night shooting another try. Our destination was a cluster of old homesteads called Mormon Row. The area, which was originally settled back in the early 1900's, is now on the National Register of Historic Places. After shooting for awhile in the late day light, we grouped together and began experimenting with long exposures and painting with light. We warmed up in the cool evening air by running around with flashlights, cell phones, and flashes while the camera recorded our antics.
