ShootDowntown: Consider Downtown Shot

With the exception of having to walk up that one hill, I had a great time. Thanks to you guys for putting this together and I look forward to the next meetup.

That’s awesome, Dave was late so he had to take the group photograph! Wish I could have toughed it out until the end. There are some great photographs.

I have a roll of film bouncing around my cupholder that I hope to get by a lab to develop and scan sometime. When I get a page of anything share-worthy I’ll remember to note it back here with a link.

I am sorry I missed the photo-shoot walking bit. I have for many years (as well as a few books) captured many aspects of downtown. Even now I am tooling up for a series on under-appreciated architecture that will commence upon my return from New York in early January.

As for the Bloggers on Ice convention, I got there just in time to be wet. Browne was to convene, too, but as we both have loads to do as well as take public transport, we ended up nearly missing even each other before we had a drink at the Biltmore before heading our ways.

If anyone happened to see me there, I were at the 5th street end, some 6’3” tall in a camel-hair jacket and one of my usual fedoras.

I suppose I am just too damned late all the time, these days…

I imagine there will be some photos of the event, and perhaps the possibility of another such happening.

i missed the downtown shoot also. I don’t run a blog but I was going to butt in anyway…

As promised, my handful of shots from testing my new-to-me Nikonos IV during ShootDowntown:

Has anyone photographed all the fountains around the major buildings downtown? There is wonderful stuff all around Bunker Hill, but you gotta climb stairs and snoop.
