Spent the weekend shooting with Jack Graham and the participants in his NE Ohio Workshop.
Because we were shooting in the CVNP -- ground that I've covered a lot -- I elected to shoot with a 180 macro for the entire weekend. It was an interesting exercise that forced me to dig down for some extra creativity. The results were very rewarding on several levels.
If you're feeling a little blah about your photography, grab a lens you might not otherwise choose and got out and try this exercise.
Thanks, Jack, for a great weekend.

Beautiful shot and a great idea to get the creative juices flowing. I've often used the same technique to force me to look at familiar ground in a different way.
