    The event was well done. It's small , congenial size -- 4 photographers and 1 guide -- was perfect. Pike Place Market is obviously a visually loaded environment, so there was no shortage of subjects to photograph. The instructor did a great job of distilling the chaos of the environment so we could focus on learning something about street photography. I'd give it a 5-star rating and would consider doing more events of this kind. In short, it was a positive experience.

    I had a great time! Even though I have "advanced" experience it was good to see how other photographers approach the work - the thinking behind the making of a photograph. Ideas for composition were excellent - A,B,C... and I had never thought of holding my camera at waist level. I got several nice shots doing that. Valentina was great to talk to and it is really apparent she takes great joy in photography and sharing her knowledge with others.

    Kevin recovered well from a last minute location change, necessitated by overcrowding at Golden Gardens due to high heat. The Ballard Locks provided ideal conditions and some really wonderful background. Kevin did a great job explaining all of the elements in ways that a near novice could understand and was super helpful and knowledgeable with the hands on aspects that made the class feel very personal! I look forward taking another class with him!

    Good size, good pace. Kevin offered suggestions for seeing compositions but was not insisting we take specific photos. Allowed autonomy to try things discussed. Kevin shared etiquette and explained the 201csocial rules 201d to keep street photography from becoming adversarial. I really enjoyed the class. Kevin understood my unique challenges as I was the only film photographer in the group.

    Good discussion with the instructor, he had a lot of ideas and tips for us. It was also a good nudge for me, to get me out trying something outside my normal comfort range.

    1. I'M PASSIONATE ABOUT MY CRAFT. I know it's cliche, but it's true. I spend a ridiculous amount of time obsessing over images and trying to capture a moment.
    2. RELIABLE WORK WITH A SMILE AND A LAUGH. I try very hard to approach all projects with a positive and attitude and keep my clients at ease. In the end, isn't that what you would like? Someone who puts you at ease, listens, delivers as promised and goes the extra mile with a smile every step of the way?
    3. I WANT TO IMPRESS YOU WITH GOOD WORK. Photography is a joy that that can always continue to expand as your skill set expands, I hope to help you with yours.

    Yours truly, Michael O'Dwyer

    I live near the water. As I worked in my garden, this eagle landed near the water's edge. It stayed long enough for me to grab my good old Cannon Rebel and I was able to capture several images with my 200mm lens. The bird seemed to have no fear of me. I moved slowly peacefully towards it and I ended up about 25' away. I did not want to scare it, so I only captured a few images. When I had finished, the bird remained here for quite some time. It was an amazing experience. I did crop the image to
