    Saw Some PR Members Over The Weekend

    It's taken me a few days to get to the photos but I met up with a couple of our longtime members over the Memorial Day weekend. Matt Carter, a.k.a. mattbikeboy. He came up from Las Vegas to visit some friends in Salt Lake and we went for a mountain bike ride on Friday evening. Unfortunately, I totally spaced on taking a picture of him riding. I did get a picture of him with a camera, though

    Here he is with Jenni.

    And here's a photo I took of Jenni riding. I am bummed I didn't think to take a picture of Matt on the bike. Sorry, Matt

    Re: Saw Some PR Members Over The Weekend

    The next morning I drove out to Heber, just south of Park City, to take pictures of SLC local and long, long time PR member, mtbbrian. Brian is an avid flyfisherman and takes flyfishing photos with his Holga toy cameras. He just published a book of his Holga fishing photos and I wanted to get some pictures of him in action for an article on him and the book.

    Keep your eyes open for my upcoming article on Brian's Holga fishing photos and book! In the meantime, if you're interested in the book, Trout Dreams, here's Brian's post about it:

    Hey two of my favorite PR photographers. Nice to see them and great that you were able to get to gather.
    Don't forget about the Gallery. Are your photos there??

    I used to ride and ride a lot, hence the user name, which I have gone by for a long time, so I think I'll keep the name.
    I've had it as a domain name for 10 years now too.
    These are some great photos of me John, they make me look pretty good, so I might have to use one for my Facebook profile pic!
    I think your article will be great John, I really appreciate you doing it!
    So far I have sold four books!
    You Mr Gooding are too kind!

    Make sure and check out my Blurb.com store, to see the book, I have two sizes available, a large format 13"x11 and a smaller 10"x8"
    Check out my books

    Glad you like these photos, Brian. I like them, too. I really enjoyed my time out there watching and taking pictures of you guys fishing. Hopefully we can do it again and you'll actually catch one

    I warned you about how much of an unaccomplished angler I am!

    That's why it's called "fishing" not "catching," right? ;-)
