Sunday, Jan 29, 12:15p-3:45p

We're starting the year again with a Special Event.  Home Shoot in Yucca Valley.  Indoors & Outdoors.  OPEN to mayhem photographers & models.  Limited Attendance.  Fashion & Bikini.  Upto 7 photographers and Upto 4 models.  It's part TFP/TF*, so photographers should also give photos to models.  Attendance is tiered.  We'll start with 5 photographers & 3 models.  As we get closer and the weather remains good, we may increase the numbers as there's also outdoor use.
-We already have several photographer signups.

It's a different location from last year.  It's Unfurnished and being renovated.  Owned, Not abandoned.  There's Window Lighting.  Lights available in a shared area.  (You'll need a generic trigger if you want to use it, RF-616.)  Photographers may use 1 Lightstand w/Strobe, plus Strobe on Camera.  Remember, it's a Group Shoot.  This may be the only time for this location, as it may get rented.  Free beverages and snacks.  To attend as a photographer, you'll need to register.  Pre-Registration opens at only $30.  see below.

Models Register Free. You may wear fashion/clubwear, bikini, and costume.

Photographers Pre-Registration/donation. Paypal accepted.  (non-transferable)
$35 with Posted Attendance.  $35 effective 1/25-28.   Only credit if we need to cancel.  Last year the weather was great.

-Temporarily filled for Photographers, we may open more spots with good weather and additional models.  Per our decision.

It's being worked on now.  (Now painted.)  It's a fairly spacious, 1300sq ft.  We're using the home like a studio.  Besides window lighting, we'll have lights and backdrop.  Outdoors has sheds, also some props like tires and old door.

FYI, the event and worker are also registered, so spots are Limited.  Will be Away most of This Week.  Any replies may be Delayed.   Some models are confirmed and the worker provided some location photos.  The sheds outside looked interesting.  Those would be good with models wearing contruction clothes-jeans and tank top, witch costume or bikini always works.  There's 3 sheds.  Will try to get a couple models posted b4 leaving.

Sounds good to me.  I just sent you a reply and will get back again.

For everyone, I'm still away this week and going through emails.  There's another model confirmed, and others that just contacted.  We'll try to schedule 4-5 models for now, with the option of more if the weather remains good.

Sure, your registration was received.  Yes, it's next weekend.

Info for all, general info in first post.  Looks like sunny weather.  Don't forget about window lighting, that's something nice you don't always get.  The indoor walls are now painted and the outdoor Sheds will be left unpainted, for a rustic look.  The worker mentioned that the unfinished floor may also be good for photos.  We plan to have 2 indoor rooms for photo taking and 1 room only for models.

It's this Sunday.  Any questions, it's best to ask between today and Fri.  I don't live there and will be driving that day.  Upon arrival, I need to setup things, so ask now.

We're looking at sunny conditions.  This area is Not as windy as Palm Springs.  The numbers were kept low, as the home is being worked-on and we wanted to make sure everyone could fit somewhere. Right now, we'll just try to add another model.  I'm 10-4, as Sat has some big races and Sun is the day.

My 2 picks are mild longshots which didn't do well last time, and are mainly price plays.  California Nector and Home Sweet Aspen.

That was a wonderful weekend.  On Sat, the picked horses ran 2nd and 1st which equaled a Win, since both were about 6-1.  Then on Sun, we had use of a rural type atmosphere and I wish I could have taken more photos.  But, I was able to do something later, that I think worked out well.  Will have some photos shortly.

Next shoot is March 4.  It will be closer to LA/OC area this time.  Outdoors.  A new posting will be made once the permit is in.

...Stock Update.  Consider taking profits.  Stocks have been UP nearly every day this year.  The Dow still appears to be in a high level consolidation.  Diversified portfolios are probably UP 5-10% this year.  Sands is $51+, plus a new dividend.  It may get a boost if Melco reports good earnings on Thurs.  I believe in protecting profits and have already begun to sell some gainers, but will still hold some.  I'm looking to safer utilities, plus many go Ex dividend this month.  No guarantees.  I'll write about Limited and Ross later.  Good Luck.
