'Meat' photo groups.

Although the online communities are satisfying for the most part, every once in a while, I like to talk to a real live person who is a photographer so I went to a meeting of the Washington DC Meetup.com Photography Group.
It was enjoyable, although the skill/experience level was not high. I had an hour or so before the meeting and I set myself the goal to take pictures in different 'styles'. These below were the result.
The exhibition at the National Gallery of Art (on snapshots) was interesting, the group was good, lunch and discussion was the best part.

You got some amazing colors out of that ordinary puddle of water. And in #2 is that guy homeless or just taking a nap? He's dressed very well!
Photos that don't suck / 365 / Film & Lomography
Meetup groups are generally younger and my hope was that I could find one or two persons who were really involved in photography who were 'at my level', with whom I could share photos and critiques and from whom I could learn something. (I know that sounds pompous but I don't know how better to say it)
The people at this group were, for the most part, intelligent, charming and interested - but with very little real experience as photographers.
I'm hoping that amongst their membership, which is large, there are a few of the people I'm looking for. So I will be going back. I have committed to teaching a basic course in PS if there is interest.
My hope is that I can find one, two or more people with the interest and time who would like to collaborate on a project (to be decided later).
When I got closer, he sat up and glared and I backed off. He was dressed reasonable well. My guess is that he is a Bush nominee waiting for congressional approval.
This is DC, not Ballmer. Higher standards, wot?
