What we’re about
Dedicated to those photographers who like to connect with other photographers to share one another's work and attend photography outings.
This group is for people serious about the pursuit of photography. It is for people who want to grow and develop their skills and are receptive to learning from one another. You should have experience and know the fundamental principles of photography.
Although you don't have to be an advance photographer, you should demonstrate a sincere and serious interest in photography.

See all- UPDATE - OWL FESTIVAL- A "Go on your own" eventVINS, Quechee, VT
UPDATE! When I first posted this I didn't realize I'd be having knee replacement therapy. I can't commit to attending this as it will depend on the status of my knee. So, I am making this a "go on your own" event. It looks great.
The details are not announced yet but last year tickets were about $20.00. I will update when I know details. The program last year looked amazing.

- What is next? Planning for future photography outingsScarborough's Restaurant, Latham, NY
Time to plan some new photography outings! Its been a long winter and after knee replacement I'm ready to get out and enjoy some photography outings. Please join me to brainstorm new ideas and have a chance to get together and catch up.
We will meet at Scarborough's Restaurant where we will have a private room. I'm still waiting to get confirmation on this. I chose this as it is a good restaurant that is centrally located. You can see their menu here: Scarboroughs Restaurant

- Wolf Creek Falls Red and White TrailsWolf Creek Falls Preserve, Altamont, NY
Wolf Creek Falls Preserve is a lovely walk to with a variety of different waterfalls. I have wanted to do this hike in the winter to see if we can find special ice formations. This is part of the Mohawk Hudson Land Conservancy (MHLC)
Wolf Creek Falls Preserve
This is a mile or so (longer if you want) trail so dress warmly and be prepared with snowshoes and/or microspikes depending on the weather. We will likely be about 2 - 2.5 hours shooting and walking. You may want to bring hand warmers and a thermos with a hot beverage. Not sure if there will opportunities for long exposure work but bring your tripod just in case.I read the comments on Alltrails and it seems that the parking lot is plowed in winter. We will meet there at 10:00 am. To learn more about the trail go to:
