  he

tried
  to
  host
  a
  photography

workshop
  at
  the
  Garber
  Tennis

Courts
  in
  Saginaw,
  MI,
  it

snowed.
 In
 April.

 This
 year,
 moving
 the

event
  into
  May,
  we
  were

promised
  rain,
  and
  even
  as
  a

traveled
  to
  the
  courts
  to
  set

up,
  the
  dark
  sky
  seemed

anxious
  to
  send
  us
  scurrying

equipment.
  Just
  before
  the

workshop
  was
  scheduled
  to

begin
  the
  skies
  parted
  and

cleared,
  and
  the
  models
  and

photographers
 were
 given
 free

reign
  over
  one
  of
  Saginaw’s

many
  unique
  photography

workshop
 locaFons.

  Beginning
  with
  the

tennis
  courts,
  this
  site
  also

offers
  a
  pond
  for
  the
  city’s

water
  treatment
  plant,
  which

stands
  as
  a
  picturesque
  castle
