I grew up in Napa and graduated from Vintage High School (I'm not joking). But that was long ago - I've been in New England for almost all of my adult life.Quote:

Yup, right in Fresno -
Spectrum Gallery, 608 East Olive ave.
Membership is open to anyone using photographic processes
( nowadays that is a really really broad catagory ).
We have group members exhibits annually as well as individual
members exhibits.
There is also a darkroom available to members.
So, anyone wanting to hook up with other photographers, do check us out!

I believe Spectrum even has an 8x10 Durst enlarger in their darkroom!Quote:

It's really quite a nice space.
The gallery itself is top drawer, and located in the "Artsy"
Tower district.
I escaped from Visalia. There's not much I miss about the place. Fresno is kinda like Detroit, nice is you are into recreational pharmaceuticals, or gang life.
I also am a Visalia refugee. Many people like it there, though.Quote:

Welcome! I'm from San Luis Obispo! Do you ever shoot film at Los Osos Oaks? Maybe I'll run into you sometime. What do you typically shoot? Me, it's landscapes/architecture.Quote:

Last time I was at Los Osos Oaks I shot some digital stuff. I'm getting re-acquainted with film with my Minolta XG-7. I have a Bronica ETRS on the way that I'm very excited to start working with. Typically I shoot products for work but my personal projects range from landscapes to portraits. I'm always up for coffee and shop talk if you want to meet up sometime.
I know this thread is old, but I've been living in the Central Valley near Fresno (Lemoore) for about 5 years now and I did a meetup with some photographers a couple of years ago, but it was mainly for digital though I found about some of the guys who had been shooting film there for a while. I wondered if any of them still shoot film. I'm all in with film now and only use digital for vacations with the kids or where digital just seems more feasible.
