I'm in Orange County, but selling my house to move to Seattle area. If the get-together happens before I sell and move, I'd likely show up. I'll keep an eye on the thread

Seattle, eh?! I have never been there, heard it's fun! Please do keep an eye on this thread so you can join us if you are still living in SoCal. We'd love to have you join our little group :) We got some great photos last get-together, and hopefully this next one will be even better! I am interested in seeing your Sony! One of my favorite photographers uses that camera (www.sh1ft.org) and I love her work!

SoCal69, myqyl, what about you two? Can you get together on Nov 6th or 7th to go to the Wedge? Does anyone else in the LA area want to go too?

I am going to propose we go on the 7th of Nov. I like going out on Sundays more than Saturdays. Saturday is a good day to stay home, clean, work on things. Sunday is fun to relax... so I am totally up for that! However, if Saturday is best, just let me know!

Not sure what the "Wedge" is, but I am a strong probably for being able to go... With trying to sell the house, pack, etc, things might come up... But I'll do my best to be there... Can you give me page and grid co-ords for Thomas Guide on where the Wedge is?

Edit : After a Google search I assume you mean either the Sam Rodiaâ��s Towers in Watts or the Wedge in Newport Beach (Surfers beach)... Which one?

I would love to go, but my daughters have three softball games that day spread out throughout the day, so count me out. If it changes to Saturday, then I may be able to make it, but don't change the scheduling just for me. Just keep me updated :) If I can go, I certainly will.

I can 13oct,14oct,19oct and *maybe* 16 or 17oct.

My first visit to LA, so I have clue where/what to shoot. :-D

10/08/2004 07:26:11 PM · #15

Chuck, we really haven't settled on a date. If Saturday is best for you, then we should go on Sat. Let us know how probable that Saturday is for you! :)

terje,

I can go on Oct 16th for a few hours! Where in LA will you be? Are you just visiting? We can go to Hollywood (tourist area) or Griffith Park maybe? Tell me more about your visit... I am also free on the 14th in the evening and the 19th in the evening. If you want to go do night shots...

I'll join you folks if you want to do night shots. Just let me know when and where.

So, Nov 6th is out for me now. I have a financial securities conference I have to go to. But I am still on for the 7th. As for the 16th, I could still do a few hours... let me know

Where/What is the Wedge?

10/18/2004 12:11:51 AM · #20

From what I hear, it's somewhere on the OC/LA border, on the beach, where the waves are huge (surfer style).

Hey, can ya have the LA DPC meet up somewhere in Michigan?

10/18/2004 01:40:27 AM · #22

Sure, if you pay for our airfare, hotels, food...

Just kidding. :)

10/18/2004 03:17:21 PM · #23

Haha! You know, I've never been to Michigan. Hmmmm.
For now, we'll stick to LA/OC :)
