They were traveling as a result of a volleyball tournament. I asked them to look through the chains so I could create this image. One member of the team gave me her email address so I could send them a copy of the photo. We wrote back and forth several times. They had a great season so I also sent the team a congratulatory email.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_20800\" style=\"width: 710px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.blog.jimdoty.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/170829-133-E-Main-5D3-3118-w7.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-20800\" class=\"size-full wp-image-20800\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blog.jimdoty.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/170829-133-E-Main-5D3-3118-w7.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"467\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-20800\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Living Art Studios, Lamoni, Iowa. August 29, 2017.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>I have a runner up photo for August 29. I was in Lamoni, Iowa visiting family. A dance, gym, and fitness studio in Lamoni was going to be listed for sale and a real estate agent asked me if I would take some photos of the studio.\u00c2\u00a0 I have done commercial property shoots for all kinds of companies like Hyatt Regency so I was happy to do that. I wanted to show the spaciousness of the room so I set my tripod low to the ground to accentuate the floor pattern and used the reflection in the mirror wall. Even though I have been doing commercial property shoots for years, it is till fun to see my photos go up on a commercial web site.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Links<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.blog.jimdoty.com\/?p=20584\">Series: Favorite Photos by Date<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My favorite photo for August 29 is a result of a chance meeting in the Las Vegas airport.
