I got this e-mail today from Longwood Gardens and thought I’d let y’all know about it. It’s their last Fireworks & Fountains performance of 2010. A month ago, Idrissa and I, together with the DC DayTrippers Meetup group, headed up to Longwood Gardens. The Fireworks & Fountains were absolutely fabulous. If you didn’t see my photos [...] During my photography workshop last week on Light and Motion: Photographing the Montgomery County Agricultural Fair last week, I wanted to focus on my students, so I didn’t do any of my own shooting.
