Well, my original post asking about photo shoots in this area didn't get a lot of responses except one guy who told me to be nice to people which I am.  My philosophy is when people are nice to me and treat me with respect and courtesy I do the same and I think that's just about as good as it gets.

I am seriously interested in getting involved in the photography communities in this area and contributing to and participating in the events but I can't show up unless I know when and where the shoots are.  Is there a bulletin board or a list serve I can sign up for that will give me this information?

Thanks guys!

If you are on facebook there are a number of groups in this area
here is one for Clearwater
http://www.facebook.com/groups/332120376852502/

On the Mayhem front, we should be having something in a month(ish) or so
We just need to get a group together and actually make it happen

I miss Joey, it's just not the same doing it without him

Photographers are professional peeping toms - they look through a tiny little hole and when they get excited they click.

Orias - you are too young to be an old bag!

I know it's hard to imagine, but most of the buffets I go to don't find it humorous when I do that...

I'm a member of several photography Meetup groups here locally, and could be attending 4 or 5 events a week...shot in several just this past weekend, including a cool junkyard gathering.

Wright's is near Henderson and Dale Mabry. Way back in the day I would go there at lunch time and get a nice big slice of Chocolate Cake!  Yummy!  They are a deli / bakery and have all types of yummy stuff.  smile

If you go to their menu then scroll waaaayyyy down to cake slices you will see the desription.  Yes, they also sell full cakes.

As far as I am concerned you are just now approaching the age where I would really want to work with you. Your beauty is a given. Your age and maturity are a plus...
