I had lunch with Dave Herndon on Wednesday on my way through Orlando. It was nice to get caught up on everything that has changed since we camped in the Dry Tortugas so many years ago. Life changes quickly! He gave me a copy of the December issue of his magazine which features Chris Cox's article and my photos from St. Vincent and the Grenadines. Maybe because it is the most recent, or maybe because of the great portraits I shot on the trip, or maybe because it was something that Lara and I worked on together, but this assignment still feels like my best for the magazine. But it wasn't until I discovered the St. Vincent and the Grenadines booth at the DEMA show and was able to show the magazine to everybody that made the trip happen, that I really knew what it was to feel good about an assignment. It was so fun to stand around with all of the great people from the tourism department, Young Island Resort and Indigo Dive and talk about all of the great spots that we visited in July. After so much time on the island for Pirates of the Caribbean and then this assignment, SVG has many good memories for me.
