A PHOTOGRAPHER FRIEND
Post 226 8/13/08 IT WAS GREAT AT EASTERN STATE!!! Ha, ha...sounds like a high school cheer, but it was actually our little gathering of SmugMuggers at Eastern State Penitentiary in Philadelphia yesterday.
Clockwise from Alex Teithof, Me, Matt Pilsner, Leslie(ljn335), John Williamson ( CSPics) and Lindsay ( Matt's friend )
We had such a great time. I think that posing for this photo and the patience everyone showed while I ran back and forth setting up the camera and getting it right was their sort of 'penitance' for times they may have needed patience from some of their own photo models.
We all sort of went our own way from almost 2 1/2 hours. For those who had never been there before there was some serious shooting of the sights. For Leslie (ljn335) and me there was time to chat and get to know eachother better and take a few shots as we wandered. We all met and went out to dinner and got to know eachother better. It was truly another great SmugMug Meetup experience for me that I'll treasure! Really a great group! Thanks, you guys for all making the effort to come into Philly and get together. John, I hope after a nightflight from California, hours wandering the prison, and then the long ride home to Lancaster you are getting some rest today. Thanks for making the effort to join us!!!
I wanted to get this shot uploaded, but will also post my gallery of all my shots here. I did not shoot much at all. I had been there before and quite frankly, I am overwhelmed with all the photos I have to process right now. I decided to post good and bad shots just to keep the documentation of what the day was like for me. It will show you that I have a lot to learn. Thank you Alex for your help in understanding that highlighting alert blinkie function...very cool!!!
My Gallery of the day is HERE.http://cleantth.smugmug.com/gallery/5701505_hjUdx#351671574_pw6dA
This is my new gallery showing off the wonderful SmugMuggers I have met. I sure hope I can add more and more photos to it, too!
