I appreciate your patience in getting the link to the last session video, I left for Cuba the morning after our session and got back Monday and I'm still getting caught up.

Thanks again for your participation in the series, you came up with much better images than I imagined and really turned on your creativity.

The final takeaway from our sessions is this: Play and have fun. We tend to get so caught up in the technical stuff and making sure that we do things "right" that we don't let our minds wander. It truly is about the journey, we see scenes or people that we like and we shoot the first thing that comes to mind. It may be a good photo, it might not. But either way there is more to discover, we need to look at it from a different point of view and see what else is there. It may mean moving our feet, changing lenses, trying different shutter speeds or apertures. Make lots of mistakes and throw away lots of digital files. From my Cuba workshop trip I shot nearly 4,000 photos and knocked it down to 500 pretty quick. From that I have about 25 that I really like and only one that I will put on my wall. For me, that is a successful trip.

Happy shooting and I hope to see you again soon.
