Last Day Dinner

Trey and his wife Tina and 3 children hosted this group for a special finale dinner. He has a separate little cottage as his work studio about 30 yards away from his home. It is landscaped perfectly. The lane down to his home is so narrow and tree covered that our bus is having a bit of struggle getting to the end.

His home has huge glass windows and doors to take full advantage of the view of the Remarkables (mountains) and the valley. The dinner is catered and we are greeted by Tina and a glass of champagne. There are conversations all over and outside as well. He has heat lams on the deck to keep us warm, but honestly the temperature is perfectly cool. The servers stroll  about with appetizers like salmon, macaroons with goat cheese and outstanding scallops.

Dessert is a plate of delicious with small cheesecake bites and raspberry sorbet to compliment. There were several small speeches to compliment the chef and Trey and Tina.

Overall I would say this was an expensive adventure, but so worth it. I saw some breathtaking scenery, met some people I would like to visit again and learned from a world master, Trey Ratcliff. I learned so much about lighting, composition and of course the biggest take away was learning his technique to create HDR photos. I have only completed a few, but I will post them.
