St Petersburg - 2008 - Day Four

Saint Petersburg Travel Blog › entry 4 of 5 › view all entries

For my first trip to Russia I am spending a week in St Petersburg. I, again, have a few days of work and 4 days to see the city. We are again on total photo safari. Likewise, same as Prague, my buddy Steve and I are experimenting with HDR and more artistic expressions in photography. They may suck, but it is worth a try and we are having fun all along the way. Enjoy.

St Petersburg - 2008 - Day Four

Georges performing surgery on the broken projectors
Remember that stupid comment from the day before about climbing up success mountain? Never mind. We took a dive down the valley of &(@#*&#$(@ up. Aside from half the table mics in the house not working during show, we had both screen projectors overheat and go down at least five times during the show! WTF. Thank god and every other deity I don’t believe in, our client is cool as hell and totally laughed about it. They realize this place is a total cluster f. My side of the show went great, but my brothers in arms were truly suffering. We drank that one off tonight though so all is going to be cool for last day of show tomorrow. That means one day closer to the Hermitage and nights of great shooting. Pray to the photography gods for favorable circumstances and that we don’t get mugged. Sorry, no photos from today. It was a pathetic one. It is hard when it does not get dark here until 2330hr and the days being so flat and gray. It would mean a very late night for a 0630 call time tomorrow. I know, I know. Win the photographer award and I think I can get lazy. I know I don’t really have readers, just lovers of cool photos. You won’t be disappointed. I am working on some cool shots from Peter and Paul Island and the Church of Spilled Blood (Christians, could you scare people any more?) I will unleash soon. Hang in there.

LOVE IT!!!
Poor George!
Surgery huh?
You are awful to keep taking those photos of him asleep - you know one day you will be the subject of his photographs...
