Road Trip

I asked Rikk Flohr to give a presentation to the Crosstown Camera Club thinking he might help enlighten our group on one of his favorite subjects, Lightroom.  Fortunately for the group, Rikk and I met to discuss his presentation and he told me about a road trip he had just taken.

He was scheduled to attend a relatives wedding in Las Vegas and a week or so later teach a class in Austin, Texas.  He decided to make a road trip of it that ultimately covered over 6000 miles from Minneapolis to Las Vegas/Austin and back.  He also made the choice to stop at many well and lesser known national parks to take some shots while out camping.  His goal was to take the shots from the same locations as a tourist might, but with the hope he could produce some good work with the limited time he had to shoot at each location.

Although Rikk hadn't gotten through most of his images yet, he was able to show our group many from each location that he shot.  Most of the images were spectacular despite the circumstances under which they were taken.  Also, the stories behind each location made for an interesting program.  I have emailed Rikk our club's thanks for the wonderful night, and hope he can send us some images for posting here later on.  In the meantime, if Rikk decides to give a similar presentation at another club we'll let you know the time, date and location.  It really was an interesting and entertaining program you should see.

To view more of Rikk's work, or register for one of his upcoming workshops, go to: fleetingglimpse.  As of last night he had only one space available for the December Badlands tour, but a member of our group may already have snagged it by the time you read this.  Otherwise, I understand space is still available for Rikk's workshop in Costa Rica.  I've been there and would highly recommend it if you have the time and inclination.
