The last few days I have had the pleasure of hanging out with some awesome photographers up in Connecticut, well we were actually in Massachusetts just over the CT border.
Amanda Harris was our gracious host and I am in love with her cabin. Over the past year I have developed some wonderful friendships with the Connecticut Pictage base of photographers and whenever I can I try to make it up to events that they hold. It was really awesome getting to spend a few days with everyone and make many new connections along the way. I didn't go picture crazy, besides my obsession with the flowers.... But I did put together a few that sum up the visit.
Here is the cabin, the view of the club house from the doc, Mr.
Justin Marantz paddlin in the lake and the reflection of an awesome sunset in the water. Oh so peaceful.

Love my bumble bee. I might make a large canvas print of this one.

Jo recreating an Australian shampoo commercial. Lovely water swirl.

More flowers, what can I say I like colorful pretty things.

Its been so nice these past few weeks just taking off to visit friends and travel. Its always good to have some inspirational time with photographer peers as well. I am still working on some goal setting, my 101 in 1001. Its harder than you might think. I need visits like these to keep me on my toes.
I am getting back in motion today, I am super tired though. A nap might be in order.
