Ya, I'm starting to think that there is too much....maybe too scattered! Glad it's in the early stages. Any help/ideas would be greatly appreciated, though I'm now getting some help from down here. Maybe scale it back to just a neapug meeting and a general invite to any/all photogs on the cape to join in. But, what subject matter would we cover? Maybe just an environmental portraiture class....? ...then in the darkroom? God, thanks Suzanne for yanking me back down to earth. Now...whats next? Where's the coffee?

As someone who has spent very little time on the Cape, I would be most interested in just having some locations where we could shoot, then get together for a nice coffee and discussion...... Darkroom access is not a big priority for me given that I have two  .

If the time/cost commitment is workable, I'd be happy to contribute some of these. As this event seems to be aimed for general audience (rather than APUG chem geeks) I wouldnt get into technical issues, but I have several areas I can help.
* Why I still shoot film for b&w work
* Japanese camera and emulsion industry in past few years
* Environment, safety and darkroom work
* Art of nightscape photography
* Archival processing, storage condition and image permanence
* Anything else I have on my website, made more easily digestible (where possible)

I live on the Cape and I'd be very interested in attending.

I sent a pm to arglebargle a week or so ago but now realize he/she doesn't know she has a message....so now I'm asking him/her to PM me so we can get in touch about this "event"

Drew,
Sounds like some great ideas. The location would be one reason I'd come down. I'd suggest making sure there is some shooting time as well as some lecture/demo time. Regardless, I'd probably stay two days there so that I could get some shooting time in.
Regards, Art.

I agree with Art - I want some shooting time, too. Some nice marshes, beaches, etc...
Is this going to be in April or so? I'd like it to be not too late in the spring. Things will get busier and I might be moving  well, for hopefully good reasons, but I'll miss this crew and all the get-togethers.

What, Bethe??? Moving far away, maybe??

She's moving for love or is it a darkroom?

Art, you picked up on that, huh? Yup, for love and the darkroom. Near Pittsburgh. I'll just have to get the western PA APUGers together like the NE crew. It isn't definite, yet, but it's very likely.
