HOT SPRINGS!

Holy CATS HOT SPRINGS!!!!

Wow…amazing.

Ok – in order –

So I road up to the Bardini’s with Jake – to shoot him on “A Maze of Death (V12)” – it was a tough shot – dark problem with a really nice mountain background – I set my primary flash at 1/8; balanced the background and voila. I purposely did not gel the flash – set my white balance to “flash” which gave the mountain background and meadow a blueish feel.

Sorry - can't post these - these are worth holding....

After that – we went back to the Looney Bean – the coffee shop in town – in which I spend my mid days (its generally too hot to climb in the day here.)

Then – well…we went to the hot springs – there’s this resort of some sort up on the mountain that has actual hot springs – well – I guess they store up the water all day – and then release it in the evening – so what all the dirt balls do is go to these down stream pools which is the outtake – its AMAZING – its like warmer than bathwater – its so warm that after a while – you just HAVE to get out…its that hot…

The pools have a sandy bottom and are maybe 1-2 feet deep – so you can lay on your back in the water. Its great….I could totally live here…
