Have You Heard?


Have you heard about a social networking website called "Meetup?"  They have groups on almost every topic imaginable in many cities around the globe.  And if they don't have one on a certain topic, they'll ask you if you'd like to start one (you tell them your interests and they'll match you up with like-minded people).

Anyway, one of the local groups is called the "Fairhill MD Nature Photography" Meetup group and they hold regular meetings and photography outings.  They have a nominal $5 annual fee.  One of their meetings coming up is with Horizon Workshop's Steve Gottlieb on the use of flash.  His workshops are normally a few hundred dollars, but he is doing this one for a mere $75. 

Take the time and check out the whole Meetup-concept and see what interests peak your fancy!

Mar 13 PhotoWalk POSTPONED

Dear friends, due to the forecast of heavy rain and wind gusts we will POSTPONE tomorrow's (Sat's) PhotoWalk planned for Brandywine Zoo.  Although weather should not deter you from taking photographs, it does not lend itself to group event and discussion.  We will reschedule ASAP.  Thank you for your understanding.
