Photo class field trip: set 5

Today's theme is portraits.

Tom took a few opportunities and "encouraged" some folks to model for the rest of the class.  It was  pretty hard  to get good photos out of these, because there were like 40 of us or something, and Tom was often in the frame showing the models what to do.  I did have a few turn out ok though.

First up, we had to practice freezing motion.  Tom contrived to get one of his helpers to jump into the air while we all took the 1 allowed picture.  A few of mine actually turned out ok, despite cruddy lighting.





Tom spent 3 or 4 minutes contorting her into this position.  The rock did look comfortable at all.


Before that, Tom convinced this model to remove her shoes, and get down almost in the fountain, and to kick up water with her toes.  I didn't get a good picture of that, though.



I think that's it for my first field trip.
