Greetings and sun salutations! Summer is right around the corner...so before you start spending more time hitting the beach and less time hitting the keyboard, we've jam packed our newsletter full of content to keep you in the know. If the sun shines too bright, not to fear, Sekonic Man is here to help you get the right exposure! Fancy a trip to Long Beach to capture some street skating action? Find out why you want to travel with the Roadie II no matter where you plan on flying? What do killdeer birds and Congressmen have in common? Nothing really, besides both being mentioned in our link love. And now that we've met our cheesy joke quota, on to the newsletter!
