Dr. Charles Stanley at North Window and Turret Arch

 

Sorry I missed yesterday’s blog entry, been rushing around getting ready for the Arches event!!!  I am personally excited about this event for many reasons, not the least of which is the wonderful team we will have in place!!  I will be joined by my long time friend and former boss at Nikon,(and now also retired), Bill Pekala, my partner and brother Jim Begley and our team member, “Snake” Barrett, and some important surprise guests!  I love Arches/Canyonlands and I can’t wait to share the parks with these friends, and our wonderful group attending the workshop.  Many of our attendees are long time friends and His Light customers already, so that makes it special as well!  * (just fixed about ten typos, not sure where my head was, sorry!!!!)

 

This event will feature night time photography of the Milky Way over some of the fantastic stone monoliths in Arches, and that should be a lot of fun!  Regular early and late light locations are also great in these two parks!  If all that were not enough, a trip to Milt’s Stop & Eat (one of the very best cheeseburgers in America), is worth the trip alone!

 

I have a very special request for those of  you that read this blog entry.  Our first event of the year last week in Old Car City was a great event and the spiritual aspect of the workshop was on of the most profound ever.  When Jim and I started His Light Workshops it was with the expressed purpose to not only help people improve their photography and have a great time, but to also lift them up spiritually!  Our hope is always that anyone that goes on a workshop with us will leave renewed both photographically and spiritually.  By that I mean that they will go home with a deeper commitment to serve God in their family, with their friends, an co-workers, but also to deepen their walk with Him.  The workshop company does not belong to us, it belongs to Him.

 

Please pray for the folks that are joining us, and for our team, that we will be obedient to Him and make people feel welcome and encourage them to find a deeper walk in the spirit!  Also please pray that those attending, that they will come with an open heart to what God  wants to teaches during our time together!

 

Thank you for your prayers, on many occasions I’ve reached out to my readers and He always responds in miraculous ways to your prayers and I know He will again!

 

I will keep you posted with images and updates through out the week!  Thanks again for taking a little time out of your day to cone and visit with me here, I will always strive to make it worth your while!!!

 

Blessings,

 

the pilgrim

    Forget the photography, praise the Lord!!!! Just kidding photography is fun also. I start all my landscape photo workshops with the opening slide that says…”Landscapes by God ; recorded by photographer Michael Curtis.” Give credit where credit is due. Praying for you, still quote you in some of my sermons.

    His / your workshops are like spiritual retreat for me, they just have the added bonus of learning, doing, and sharing photography.
