I was lucky enough to be able to work with Steve St. John, the Sr. Photo Editor of the Nat Geo image collection. Steve was just great to work with, and clearly no stranger to being on camera which helped me out immensely.  In this piece he discusses some shooting tips for capturing the Panama Canal Locks. Keep in mind that this was shot in just a couple of hours, and edited for the internet almost immediately. Produced, shot, and edited by Beau Sylte
