    There are alot of Alaskan dgrinners...but I am not sure how many are from Fairbanks area. I have been thinking about sometime organizing a photographer weekend thing for Alaskas dgrinners but not sure how to go about it yet or if anyone would be interested in it. Summer is when the photographers do alot of weddings and other work outside.

    Fall might be a good time...especially with the color and just a tad of snow on the local mountains. Maybe get the critters before they migrate or hybernate?

    How many other Alaskans would be interested in this sort of weekend get together?

    Check out www.uaf.edu. We sometimes do photography classes as a club, but usually in the winter when people have more time.
