"Everybody can’t be afraid of knuckleheads and gangsters. If we were, they’d take over." -- Sammie Sias, Richmond County Neighborhoods Association Alliance
This photo was taken by Dwain Shaw at Old Faithful at midnight on a night when the temperature was only 12 degrees. Shaw used a technique called painting with light and he'll be teaching the technique during a special workshop at the Augusta Photography Festival, June 19-22. Other workshops at the photo festival will include instruction in golf photography from long-time Augusta National photographer Frank Christian and instruction in nature photography from Phinizy Swamp photographer Ed Belinsky. Thanks to a donation from Peter Knox, all workshops are priced at only $10.
