Barry Penner likes to bring along visual aids when he does a presentation. He finds it helps to have something specific to point to, plus it makes it a lot easier for everyone to understand what he&#8217;s going on about.
Of course, sometimes he still has to explain things two or three times&#8230;

<p>Barry Penner is the undisputed master of dramatic poses. Even when he&#8217;s just pointing at a dot on a map on a screen above another screen, Barry Penner pulls out all the stops and totally BLOWS YOUR MIND! Arm straight! Chin out! Leg dynamically up on something (<a href="http://www.barrypennerisawesome.com/2009/12/07/the-secrets-of-barry-penner/">I assume</a>)! Windbreaker partially unzipped and collar undone in a &#8216;I&#8217;m casual, but still here to get stuff done&#8217; kind of way! Blue-vest there will never forget the day he stood so close to such pure pointing majesty.</p>

<p>Barry Penner gives a quick lesson on how to pose for a great nature shot.</p>
<p>First, you find some Environment. A mountaintop or any sort of running water is ideal. It&#8217;s best if you can find some without <a href="http://www.barrypennerisawesome.com/2009/09/16/harnessing-the-power/">an ugly building</a> behind it, but sometimes you have to take what you can get.</p>
<p>Second, find something to get your leg up on.  A <a href="http://www.barrypennerisawesome.com/2009/09/23/barrys-rock/">rock is good</a>, a <a href="http://www.barrypennerisawesome.com/2009/09/24/the-real-job-of-the-environment-minister/">pier will do</a> in a pinch, or even just <a href="http://www.barrypennerisawesome.com/2009/11/17/this-hill-aint-big-enough-for-the-two-of-us/">standing a little weird</a> so it LOOKS like your leg is on something. The important thing is to get your knee up. It looks more dynamic that way.</p>
<p>Next, find something waaaaaaaay off in the distance and <a href="http://www.barrypennerisawesome.com/tag/pointing/">point at it</a>. This gives it a sense of mystery. What <em>is</em> Barry Penner pointing at while standing in a dynamic pose in front of some Environment? I certainly don&#8217;t know!</p>
<p>Finally, wear an <a href="http://www.barrypennerisawesome.com/2009/09/21/dont-underestimate-the-environment/">orange vest</a>. That&#8217;s so that people can see where you are.</p>
<p>Okay, now you try.</p>
