A Day with Tiger and Jason

Today (Tuesday) was the day for Tiger's family to host the events, so we drove back downtown to a series of apartment buildings in the old section of town.  I was expecting to meet some strangers with Tiger and his family there as well, but was pleasantly surprised to see Vicky's parents as well.  We spent a small amount of time in their apartment, then proceded to leave for the local restaurant.

This involved a walk across the highway.  I didn't get photos, but we walked up over a pedristian bridge above the street level main road, but then below the elevated section of the highway and descended right into a local market with people selling all sorts of items by just setting them out at street level.  Some of the sales people were very young (families work very hard together to produce the means to live in some places.

At lunch, Vicky gave me the task of handing out the lucky money this time.  It was fun and gave me the chance to directly interact with a wide circle of Tiger's family.

After lunch we took Tiger and his cousin, Jason, back to Agile Gardens for a photography lesson.  Jason sat next to me at lunch and spoke at length about his love of making photos and capturing beauty with his phone.  So I swallowed hard and handed my D700 to the two of them to see what they would produce.  After starting with some typical scenery photos, I assigned each of them a mundane object and asked them to produce 10 different photos of it.  Jason had a fire hydrant; Tiger had a garbage can.  Tiger had me stand in one of the photos of the garbage can and as he was taking my photo burst out laughing.  It seemed an elderly man was walking by and started talking out loud about the insane american having his photo taken next to garbage.  We finished by having a lesson on working up the photos in Lightroom.  

After the photography lesson, we went to the mall for Pizza Hut and another movie with Queenie, Tiger and Jason.
