Angie and Mike's Blog

Last weekend Angie and I went to Salina for Cooperstorm IV, a very casual annual reunion of former K-State photographers at Jeff Cooper's house. During the first Cooperstorm, I commented that his garage reminded me of the barn at the Eddie Adams Workshop, aka Barnstorm, and thus the Cooperstorm nickname was born. (At least three, maybe four, of us at this year's reunion are alumni of the workshop.)

We shared a mean meal of chili made by Karen's new husband, Erik, after indulging ourselves on several chips and dips. There was plenty of beer from the brewery in Hays. After dinner we settled in Jeff's remodeled bungalow living room (he created the arch way and the recessed lighting) to share some of the photos we'd made during the past year.

So here's a photo of all of us looking at Kelly's work. It seems he always goes first because he has to leave right away to get back home. Maybe one of these years, he can stay for the entire event.
