Maybe we need another LF shoot/get-together. Long overdue! And a good way to discover new locations for shooting.

Would it be improper to show up to such an event with a lowly MF TLR? I mean, I have an enlarger that will do 4x5, so perhaps I should introduce myself to a LF camera?

You can't get much more target rich, especially for LF, than Glenwood Cemetery... and I think it has been quite a while since we had an LF outing there.

OK, Ted... here's your chance - - Wayne and I are going shooting in Glenwood this Saturday, June 4. While the cemetery opens at about 7:30, he & I will not be there before 9:30 - - a prior appt. keeps us from getting there sooner. But we hope to see you there - - it is definitely a target rich environment for LF. Who knows, I may even bring my LF... although I have some other lenses I'd like to test out on the digital camera.

I'll have enlargments from 5x7 negatives as well.

Thanks to Kevin for the kick in the arse at the recent LF GTG.
