Rice U/Med Center: | I like these suggestions, and I have no real preference between them. If we do flash, I'm game but need to borrow equipment as usual. If we do fixed focal length, I'm going to need to borrow some gaffers tape.

Maybe I can use a new lens or 2. :)

So the date and time are still open. I only put 9/11 because it's this upcoming weekend and to basically get some responses from y'all.
Keep in mind when we lock down the details I will update this thread, by doing that the responses will clear.
So as of now we have the hermann park/med center. | | | |

Either location is minutes from home for me, which is good. I will be working Saturday night, in a co-worker's place, and weekend nights can be wild, so getting off work on time at 6 AM can be problematic, which could complicate getting enough sleep, so a noon meet-up is going to be a "maybe" at this point in time. I would certainly like to be there!
Working with flash in the park, or shooting architecture, both sound interesting. Shooting architecture on 9-11 might get the wring kind of attention, but a mixed group of folks with cameras should be much less suspicious than one or two guys with cameras, I do have the credentials (police ID) that should help de-fuse any attention from authorities.
My wife might try to make this meet-up, also.

Sounds like it'll be a very casual photowalk with the families! Need some uber fast lenses, 1.2 or 1.4 to get that dreamy feeling ;) | | | |

Still up in the air if I am gonna go. I need to shoot more (been slacking).
Depending on conditions earlier in the day (9/11 events) I may show.
Maybe I'll do the whole thing with this mix of modern and antique macro gear I put together.
