Always looking for Photo opps!

I have a suggestion for all my UHH friends: Always be looking for Photo opps and take advantage of them when you can.
While on a mountain bike ride at the "golden hour" I came across a photographer taking photos of a husband and his wife who was pregnant with their first child. The pregnant wife was wearing a long white flowing dress that really seemed to pick up the glowing light of the golden hour. The photographer had obviously planned out this whole photo shoot to be in harmony with that beautiful light. While riding my bike and seeing them, I stopped and asked if they would mind if I took a few photos of them with my cell phone. Fortunately they were all nice and said yes! It's always best to ask! The worst that could happen is they would say "no". I took several photos of them and also a few of the area where I was riding my bike. The light was fabulous! I now wish I had taken my "big boy camera" along on the bike ride!

Beautiful. Glad you stopped and got these pictures. I usually carry my DSLR with a 24-70 or 90mm macro with a spare battery and SD card in a lightweight 'sling' pack that I don't even 'feel' on my back, ever ready.

And you always seem to find those photo ops Brent. Quite different from your action surf shots but pleasing just the same. Love your work. Proves that you have the eye and skills no matter the equipment.

Brent,
Beautiful work! Iโ€™m beginning to think itโ€™s impossible for you to take a bad photograph.
Not a hint of a beach, surf or white wetsuits and they still came out excellent.
