Okay, I just got home from my whirlwind road trip with Zeb where we traveled from Washington, through Oregon, down to California and back in 6 days. We got a ton of great images but more importantly I had the honor and pleasure of meeting and shooting with some of California's finest photographers and just all around great people. Our first day in San Francisco I met up with the two classiest girls in Cali, Lisa & Dawn as well as a small army of Cali's Finest, Rich, Jave, James, Ian, Alan and 2 others... Dave (I couldn't find you to link) and one other gentlemen who's name I have forgotten (it was a long ride home).
After meeting up and having some great laughs over dinner when hopped into the blacked out SUV's and put Operation Bluebird into motion. After getting the run down on just how we were going to need to break the law to get this shot (little did my friends know I am a seasoned veteran :0) we rolled across the Bay Bridge to Treasure Island and proceeded to pile out of the cars and disappear into the trees to wait for the cover of darkness to get this shot. Ever since I first saw this shot I have wanted it and even tried to get here once on my own with no knowledge of the area and broke a brand new $650 lens in the process. This time, with the help of the Cali Connection I was able to get in ~ Get out ~ and get the shot ~ without getting arrested...again. :)
MUCH LOVE to the Cali Crew!!! You guys were as much fun as the shooting itself and I laughed so hard I actually have sunburned laugh lines on both sides of my eyes. You guys are welcome anytime anyplace and have a personal tour guide anytime you hit Oregon or Washington.
Please jump over and spend some time looking through the images from these photogs. You will be glad you did. I brought 20 GB of images back with me so get ready to follow me along on my journey for the next couple weeks. Now it is time to get to bed!
