This is my first attempt at blogging.  I want to share with you some of the images I took while in Bend, Oregon this past December.  I was one of 20 scholarship winners to receive a week long intensive training by one of the top ten photographers in the world, Kevin Kubota.  This trip was surreal.  I met some fabulously talented photographers and got to visit one of the states I’ve always wanted to visit.  It was absolutely beautiful.  I finally experienced waking up to a blanket of snow!  You don’t get to experience that living in the desert.
