After the demonstrations today I went for a drive around Oswego. I was going to try and go directly to the lighthouse but the traffic getting over the bridge on Utica Street was pretty heavy so I took the turn the other way. I ended up driving to an open area next to Fort Ontario. There was a big opening in the fence so I scooted through to the railroad tracks. The sun was setting and it was directly in my way. I decided to use it and also use some leading techniques to get the Photo-A-Day today. I love how it turned out.
Tomorrow I head back home. I hope the weather is good because I also hope to take a side trip or two to take photos.
Today after the demonstrations I took the Tripod down to the river to get some shots. I played around with the manual settings to see what I could get for shots on this cloudy day. This is the one I liked the most. In the distance is the lighthouse in the area. I am going to drive around tomorrow and try to find it and get a better shot.
Demos went well today for the most part. I was able to keep awake for most of them. I did nod off per usual which stinks because the beds in this hotel are awesome and I’ve slept so well in them. I’ve even been getting to bet early, I have no clue why I keep falling asleep. Well, that is not true. It is very hard to stay awake watching demo after demo with the florescent lights, the hum of the computer and the projector. Eventually everything falling into that soft soothing rhythm that makes it impossible to keep my eyes open. I’ve got to figure out how to stay awake though because it is not going to be a good thing if I keep falling asleep in the demos of the people I am training.
