    Something's broken on Mat's gallery - after the first few images it all switches back to wedding photos, although the thumbnail images still look like our shots. headscratch.gif His slideshow is also too fast :D

    Very cool to see a thread where people are meeting up locally!
    There is another Seattle photog meetup in the making. I'll post the details when I have nailed down some dates for an different group.
    FYI: This meet will be in a studio environment and be more intensive on the off camera lighting scenario rather than ambient light.

    I'll post in an existing "location" thread that is associated w/ Seattle when it's time.

    Darn you guys! Now a studio lighting meetup? Gah! :D

    Here's a tip, you can find a bunch of ads for studios for rent (and if I remember right te prices were reasonable) at the glazer's rental shop (though they may be at the lighting shop now).
    Y'all don't want to hear me, you just want to dance.

    I also have access to a large (~5500 sq ft, 20+ft ceilings), multi-room (and multi-level) industrial art gallery/studio. I spend a lot of time there, but I havn't looked into renting it for any particular purpose yet; I just shot an email off to the owners to inquiring about rental pricing. wings.gif

    What would we have an interest in shooting? Products? People? Environment? I personally dunno of any models who'd be interested in dealing with a bunch of new photogs, but the studio I just contacted might (and I asked them to that effect also).

    It's working fine now. I think the problem originally was that files were still uploading.

    You shouldn't be embarrassed; I especially like the one of the Totem pole in Pioneer Square - maybe we can all do a day of Pioneer Square and the underground. Good to see more results from everyone!
    Thanks Bob, I appreciate the compliment.

    BTW, I love your shots of the fish pole and the manhole cover. But, I didn't see the fish pole in the entries headscratch.gif. I must have missed it. Where is that pole, anyway, in the Market somewhere?

    Thanks! It's in there - I spotted it on the second page. The pole itself is right next to the "happy" clown guy that Rhuarc got some shots of, so right near the fish throwers.

    I have more interest in model shoots. I have 2 AB800's a 20x20 muslin, that we can put to good use if someone has the space.

    Sorry I'm a little late to this, I spent all day yesterday (Wednesday) out hiking in the snow.

    I have to say, amazing photos, all of them! clap.gif After looking at all of those pictures I am again reminded just how much I have to learn about photography, or even just seeing the world around me.

    I'm in talks with the owners to firm up rental pricing details so we could proceed with this if there's enough interest. So everybody knows, it's not exactly a normal studio - it's a performance art/gallery studio where the content is patterned after a late-1800s French bordello; people may want to PM me for a better description if they're adverse/curious.

    Just so I have an idea, what days would work well for people (that are interested)? Sundays again?

    Saturday would actually work better ofr me, if others could make it work. My wife and I usually try to plan something Sunday afternoon, but if that didn't work for otehrs I guess my wife and I could rearrange things.

    Depending on the day. I may be able to draft some model talent.
    I'm always down to meet on a Saturday. I would cut out around 12:00 though.

    There's a possible meet on Saturday March 17th. Depending on how many photogs are interested here. PM me if interested.

    Cheers,
    -Jon
