This is the second meeting. The first one featured Elena Hernandez who presented on underwater fine art photography.

A speaker has not been announced yet for the upcoming meeting. I'll update when details become available.

thanks

I was asked to go over the Strobist 101 information for people who want to learn more about off-camera lighting but aren't yet sure how to get started. So come and learn, or if you are a long-time Strobist, come and join the discussion and help others learn.

Thanks, Jon, for the pitch!

Jon, you should use the Meetup option on the forum (events) so that you can see who has RSVP;d. Do you know what they will talk about? I'm sure it's not underwater photography again. I'd want to know the topic before attending. Not that I'd like to see you again. lol - just sayin :)

Hi Robin, What's going on?

Meetup option? I did read the rules for posting a meetup and thought I was doing it right. Is it possible to turn it on or would I need to delete and re-post?

James Crossman, @crossmage, will be the speaker and the topic will be Strobist 101, how to use off-camera strobe for better lighting.

As you know, Strobist style shooting has become very popular, all the cool kids are doing it. :-)

More details on the talk and some sample pictures are available over on his web site.

Remember my daughter? She is four now and she took my current profile picture. Hope to see you at this meetup or one of your shoots.
