Ever feel like somebody is watching you? @stevenjmagner
How do you thank someone you hardly know?
My friend Kevin was kind enough to send me some Google pins to locations in San Diego for some night photography work a few weeks back. We had never met before but had some friendly conversations in photography groups we are both linked to on Facebook. To return the favor I invited him up to Los Angeles for a 1 on 1 night photography workshop I offer, free of charge.
As with all photography you want to plan your shots out a bit; this was not one of them. Kevin wanted to take a shot of the rocks from a bluff above the beach. After he got into place I set my bag down so that I could take a quick breather from running around in the sand below from comp to comp. It wasn't even 10 seconds before I saw his silhouette against the dark sky and knew that I couldn't pass up on the opportunity to snap a few shots of my new friend in action...

Yes it certainly is unreal to see. I wish our eyes could adjust like this @remic2005
Wonderful to see this meetup due to steemit and great catch :)
Thank you @fitinfun! So far Steemit has been a pretty great resource for inspiration!
I totally agree. I just got here and the inspiration is flowing for me too :)
What a great shot! I'm sure he's thankful you were on your game!!
@christiesnelson he asked me right afterwords if he could use the photo for his social media. I haven't the heart to say "pay me!" haha
