I Had some fun this week shooting gigs and friends.  Friday night I caught my buddies' band One Track Mind at the Whiskey Saloon on PC Beach.  I always like catching these guys, cause the front man, Mickey, has been one of the corner stones of the local music scene for as long as I can remember.  Good players and a good time.  From a photography point of view, it's another chance to work in low light.  I set my camera to the Sutter Speed Priority setting, TV on my Canon.  This allows me to work my shutter speed without worrying about aperture settings.  Yeah, you give up some control, but in a highly dynamic setting, it really helps get the best result.

And here is a little stylistic fun I had with a slower shutter speed.  Kinda cool.

Saturday, I shot a great family at the beach.  And while I restrained from anything too wild, they were more than willing to try some fun things.  Really nice folks, and some great kids.  We had a blast!

And to be filed under the "never miss an opportunity to shoot", I spent a little extra time out at the State Park just seeing what there was to see.

Have a great week and do exceptional work!
