A group of 7 advanced photo shooters wanted some lessons in waterfall
photography so we loaded up a min-van and headed up to Doi Inthanon and
the Ma Ya waterfalls for the morning, studying the use of neutral
density and graduated neutral density filters along with polarizers to
balance out the tonal values of light and shadows. I usually don't take
groups larger than 3-4 but as these folks were all traveling together I
decided to break my traditions. After a good picnic lunch by the river,
we went to the Mae Klong falls for another orientation of the water
flow, then further up the mountain to the Karen village for some candid
people photography utilizing flash photography inside and around the
village and houses, and where we were invited in for dinner. I've been
photographing this village and the lovely folks in it for the past three
years and we've built up a nice report. It's a prosperous village as
they all work together as a co-op, and the village shows that spirit of
co-operation in everything they do. A good day was had by all. Doi
Inthanon is a beautiful venue for photography.

Sounds great, Steve. Hope to take a lesson from you one day. Been to Doi
Inthanon in 2003 and loved it. We rented a car and went there by
ourselves, much better than with a tour. Pity that time I wasn't into
photography. Now that I have my D70, can't wait for another visit.

Cheers

Glad to have you along. Tours are fine, but not for photographers. They
tend to move much too quickly, and don't really know the best times of
the day for the best lighting in the areas we want to shoot, much less
give you instruction in how to get the best results from your equipment.
Sometimes it's as simple as adding a graduated neutral density soft
edged filter to balance out the lighting, while other times just a
polarizer will give you the effect you want. Come along a shoot with us.
Your D70 is a fine camera that can give you professional results easily.
I'd have to say that 1/3 of my students these days are shooting with it,
with another 1/3 using the Canon EOS 300D. No need to spend thousands of
dollars on equipment. The extra money is better spent seeing and
learning about different parts of the world.

By means of paying you???

Chabby, you keep poking your nose in where it's not needed... sooooo
here we go again.....

Chabon...... Al Qa'ida connection?

What is there a connection between them?

How do we handle a terrorist threat?

Is it really an Al Qa'ida group connection or perhaps Abu Sayyaf, Ansar
Al-Islam, or HAMAS?

Chubby, could you shed some light on your current affiliations?
