We are looking good for Garson Deck.

James,

It shouldn’t be a problem to arrange this. I will send you a letter and notification a few days before September 16th so that everyone is adequately prepared. Will you send me another email that week to confirm plans? I know the weather can sometimes cause delays.

Thank you,

Cara

And for anyone interested that wasn't there last time these was taken from the top level of Garson Deck:



And this from Jackson Street Bridge:

Well, our children will have to eat oatmeal for the next month, but we got a room at the Westin.

I talked to the desk-person about getting a higher floor, but we will have to take our chances the day of check-in, so we will be trying to arrive early. Of course everyone will be welcome to stop by the room, and we are only charging $19.95 admission - or the use of a really nice Nikon lens, or a six pack of... well, you get the idea.

Seriously, we can't wait to meet everyone, and are more than happy to share/help in any way we can. If anyone is interested in taking pics of the city during daylight hours, feel free to ask!

Hey, nothing wrong with oatmeal. :-)

Sounds like you guys got some nice digs while you're here. Cool! Looks like this is turning into a great GTG!

Lucky for me I shoot Nikon, huh? Everyone else, make sure to bring TWO six packs...just in case.

Seriously, glad you guys can make it, and we'll see you there.

Ok I am e-mailing Marta a confimation today. Is 10:30 - 11:00 still a good time frame for Garson Deck?

Rex...did you say we are going to be taking photos OF the westin, or FROM the Westin?

Any info on getting property releases if its OF the Westin so we can use the images for stock?

Well the Westin you can see from Centennial Olympic Park. Why would you need a property release?

I think rossbilly said we could shoot from his room if he getshigh enough. But you must bring a case of beer. :)

:( I miss Atlanta. Until 2 years ago, I worked near the top of the Bank of America building. The city at night. Midtown. Buckhead. Not that I don't love Florida now, but most of my life was there. Wish I could join you guys.

Cindi, I have a great idea!

Why not give yourself a birthday present & come join us for the Atlanta GTG? (wait, that would be like giving US a present) Hehe - ya can't blame me for trying.

Happy 28th! ;)

(sorry, couldnt decide which thread to put this in...)

Hmmmm, they may have to widen the parking deck. This was just with 5 or 6 of us and we took up almost the whole wall with all the massive tripods! :-)

So what time is the keg party at the Westin?? Just kidding.... :-)

Jen - wow girl, straight from a six pack to a keg... I knew I'd like you (our daughter is named Jennifer, and is a redheaded wearer-of-freckles too).

Ummmm - some of us have ::AHEM:: gained some weight after quitting smoking... this means you will need a W I D E lens in order to photograph our posterior! Then again, ol' cheese-butt himself won't be joining us, so at least you should be safe from being 'mooned'... LOL

Oh, and the party at the Westin should begin about 1/2 hour after the last 'tourist' shots (pictures) are taken; then the OTHER shots could begin!

(jk - we are both lightweights when it comes to alcohol...)

E-mail is off to Marta. I added Tom wetlandto the list for her.

Just an FYI concerning Rex's PM... I refuse to be termed a "Geek". goofball maybe, dork quite possibly, but I'm NOT a geek!! LOL!! :-)
 09/12/2006 11:04:51 AM · #96
Also, I see kevinriggs has taken seriously my threat of "Butt Kicking" and has decided to stay far away. Hmmmmm, guess I should have thought twice about that, now who will I bum an upgraded camera from??? :-(

Hey Kevin, buddy, I was just kidding. Please join us at the GTG, pretty pleas!!. :-D

I am a bit confused. Is there more to dinner than beer?

@Eric - Of course not! :)

@Rex - AM NOT!! :-) and yes, provided ankle-biter sitter is available as grandma is not. :(

@Larry - Nope, I was in San Diego that weekend so I sadly missed it. I've been checking out your shots though and am bummed that I couldn't get there this year.

So are we actually eating dinner?
