Photography Buddies

The best, best thing about my getting into photography has been the formation of new friendships. Here are Celia on the left, Erick (you probably know already) in the middle and that's Hiromi on the right.

We went to Kapiolani Park yesterday to do a photo shoot. Celia, I can't thank you enough for keeping a watchful eye on my gear and for assisting me. Erick, thanks for coming. I know it was a bit early for you.
Hiromi, thank you so much for being patient while I tried to figure out damn off-camera flashing. You are such a perfect model.

great pictures. Its an awesome thing to have friends who enjoy doing what you enjoy. I feel the same way about the fellow stampers I've met. It makes enjoying the hobby so much better.

Thanks Betty. Photography has actually made me a much more sociable person. Actually, I'm really shy.

Jalna, I was laughing so hard when you took our picture at Hale Vietnam - you look so cute trying to get us in your shot. It was fun and I am glad I could watch your gear. Others need to know the complexity of "behind the scene", hee hee.

Celia, so junk yeah me. How many shots did I have to take until I finally got it? Maybe like 4?

Hey Les, I AM shy!!! For Hiromi's picture there're two light sources - off camera flash on the left and reflector on the right.

Hahahaha. Erick, I think I'll always be a wannabe!

Didi, I had the chicken pho, and it probably was the best I ever ate.

I'm with you, Les...don't think Jalna is shy. And Jalna, you're not a wannabe. Your work is awesome!!
