One Minute Update (14 May)

Hi Everyone,

I tend to be more intrigued with the
flowers than with the landscapes

Are you ready for summer?  I am getting there.  I have plans to tackle the Colorado Trail and therefore spent the weekend down in the CanyonLands in UT training.  A great trip.  Backpacking is almost as expensive as buying camera gear <grin>.

I am planning a trip back to the CanyonLands in Oct.  Anyone interested in backpacking out into the wild for some awesome views contact me.  We can start planning our FUN!

Other BIG NEWS we celebrated our 7th Anniversary on May 7th.  Did you know that we are the oldest Photography MeetUp Group in the Springs and have hosted over 735 MeetUps?  And we continue to grow.  I had a goal that we would have 1,000 followers on FaceBook by our Anniversary-- and we have 1,056.  GREAT! And we have new people finding our MeetUp Group every week.  So everyone can give themselves a big pat on the back.  Our community is doing fabulous.  So let's get out there and have fun.  Post your photos on the MeetUp Photo Gallery or on Facebook.  Plus, we have a DIY Build a 1 Light setup class set for the 15th (You don't have to buy the gear to participate), a class on 'Color for Dummies' on the 31st and a Professional Photographer Speakers presentation scheduled for Jun 7th.

So lot's going on and more on its way.
