Opryland At Night Continued

A tip from Denis Reggie

This shot was made possible by a tip I learned from Denis Reggie. He taught us some great tips about how to work with light. I learned an amazing amount from him and the first thing I wanted to test was a use of indirect light that he calls foofing. It really does work, and it makes a huge difference. I know this is just a statue, but look at how this photo has a third dimension the way the shadow goes from dark to light across the face. Thanks Denis, you changed my world in just a short time.

Inside the Opryland Hotel

This morning I took a photo walk inside the Opryland Hotel in Nashville Tennessee. There are three atriums in this building and each has it's share of waterfalls and vegetation. The constant sound of falling water fills each of these areas making it a very peaceful place.
