Bay Area Photographers meet

OK, so we talked about it enough. Now it is time to do it.

This is a meet for all the photographers to get together for a meet and shoot. This is not about cars, so bring any car you like, but it is about photography. We want to go somewhere and do shoots of different subjects like the ocean, city, or whatever you guys are into.

Let's start suggesting locations and time.

hmmmm, mt. hammy anyone?

I dunno, it's just that the G.G. thing has been so overdone lately, one person posts pics, then another posts more, then another with more...

I wanna do some landscape photography

I am not the decision maker here, but here are my thoughts.

1. What subnooby said is true, GG bridge has been done to death. i don't think we can be anymore creative than the work been done there.

2. Mt. Hammy, i am not liking the idea because now everything has turned brown and no green and no water anywhere.

3. Rescuer, Reyes Pt. from looking at the map, I think I love that the most.

So how many vote for Reyes Pt.? Also let's pick dates that work for everyone. So please suggest something.

I just noticed, I now have over 2000 posts. WOW.

You could also go to a busy place and do photography of people.

I feel weird singling out a stranger and taking pics of them. If its a whole big group I don't have a problem though. I'm totally down for a photo meet though... just let me know when and where!

Only if they notice

No but by yourself is really the only way to not attract attention, and capture people acting themselves.

To capture moments in regular life.

Theres always someone thats gonna notice. I've said it before though, if you're afraid of getting weird looks, you're not going to get the good shots

Maybe this weekend I'll stroll down Cannery Row and get some candid shots
