I meant to post the rest of this shoot with Ariel Fahey last month (after posting the first batch in June), but I totally forgot! I have 3 more posts from this shoot so here is the first one.
When you have a good long day in the wilderness planned there is time to hike, to relax, to chat, to swim, and break up those activities with short bits of photography as situations present themselves. You end up with all these very different scenes from the same day which makes these hikes to my secret canyon so rewarding!
I kept playing with this sheet of dichroic film (usually put on ultramodern building windows) that makes crazy colors, either over my lens, or bouncing sunlight off the sheet while bending it to throw abstract shapes of of color light onto the scene, but it was so bright most of the time it was hard to see the color, but later in the day when the canyon was in shade, the color started to pop and Ariel and I made this little sequence against one of the big canyon walls that I rather liked.
Also late in the afternoon we finally found a decent sized garter snake that was chill enough for us to pick up and handle for a while to get some shots - I always like to add to this series of models holding these charming little snakes.
