Pink Ponchos
Caroline and I snuck off during work today. We went around the side of the store to the fountain. It was my first time doing such things, and it only lasted a few minutes, but we tried several positions. Two hours later we tried again and I think it was better.
That is.. we took pictures. We didn't sneak out though, that was a bold-faced lie -- the boss told us to. Caroline modelled a pink poncho and we took pictures. When we first went out the lighting was extremely spotty because it was shining through a tree so there were only a few places we could stand where my shadow wasn't in the picture and the light wasn't spotty on her. Later on around 7:30 the lighting was a lot better.
Shutter delay with the digital camera was particularly aggrevating. Apparently technology thus far has been completely unable to make an electronic camera without shutter delay (this from discussion with dad). One several things I miss about my SLR camera (which I didn't even bring down here), but the ease of proliferating pictures from digital cameras here makes all the difference.
But yea, today was my first photo shoot of someone intentionally modelling for me, usually I take exclusively pictures of people caught off-guard (or pictures of say.. yarn).

Not the most artistic and creative series I could have done but hey.. it was my first time )=
