Getty Image Shoot Cap-Up


Alright, I posted a quick end of the shoot posting last night, but I have alot more pictures and I really want to share more about the trip; so here we go. The first night we drove from Los Angeles to Idllywild, Ca. This is one town that has really no purpose it seems except to one day hope for a huge snowfall. Wait, I forgot to say that we ate lunch at Morongo Casino. Let me say, Morongo...not exactly Vegas, but definitely a Casino. Anyway, back to Idllywild. I wasn't used the first night because we got there really late. The next morning, up at six, I was used in the morning as a Hiker and boyfriend of Marissa (aka Wendy Cooper) and a squirrel. Then we moved to a mountain top and shot a bit up there, I was (officially) used, but I got some shots of myself and the others; then off to another point of the mountain, same situation as before. That night we moved to 29 Palms just outside of Joshua Tree. Having spent two years and some months in LA, seeing the night sky took me by surprise an amazing surprise, and for those of you in my situation, the sky looks just like the Observatory would make you believe. The next day, early morning face shots in the desert near 29 Palms. Then off to Joshua Tree, dead deer, bird, squirrel. The high point, literally and figuratively was climbing one of the mountains. Finally back home. Points of interest on the way to or from Joshua Tree are a west coast Chick-Fil-A and the dinosaurs featured in Pee-Wee's Big Adventure.

Of course I couldn't fit all my photos from this weekend here, Check out the rest at http://www.flickr.com/photos/bchristian/
