Fence & Grass, Canmore AB

From 2003 to 2006 my wife Colleen and I ran a photo workshop each summer in Canmore AB. We’d rent a condo we had access to that had lots of bedrooms, and Colleen would cook gourmet meals while I took participants out to various locations around Canmore. During the evenings I’d do portfolio reviews of work that everyone brought with them. These were very much hands-on workshops, in that I’d take my photo gear along with me each day and photograph right along with the participants. I felt it was useful to have them see how I approached a scene, and many of them would ask questions and even have a look through my camera to get a feel of what I was seeing at the time. This photograph of a fence and grass was taken, as I recall, just after a lunch break and everyone was gathered around getting their gear together to carry on for the day.
