Tonight was the last class of my Basics of Photography class at Cochise County Community College, and I wanted it to be unique. There are no words to describe the honor I feel in teaching this class and the pride I have in the students that did so well in it. The forecast looked good for sunset, so I started to scout for a suitable location to shoot. A favorite spot is the Veterans Cemetary in Sierra Vista. It offers excellent views of the Huachuca Mountains and provides a chance to pay honor and respect to those who served our country. It was not until I was in the back of the property that I noticed this incredible statue. It may be new, or I may have been blind to it, but I knew instantly that it had to be tonight's centerpiece. I believe the class agreed as they seemed to have a great time shooting.

Needing to work around their priority, I decided to try out a new 6-stop filter on the shot. The filter allowed me to take a sixty-second exposure, which turned the evening clouds into a smokey dream. I am undecided as to if I like the final shot, but I know I love the spot and will be back to capture it again.

Next semester I get to teach a class in lightroom and photoshop at the college. I can't wait!

I am blessed to be His scribe.
