D/FW LF GROUP OUTING, ST. OLAF’S CHURCH IN CRANFILL GAP, SAT 4/27
Who is up for some shooting this Saturday, April 27? We will be meeting at St. Olaf’s Church in Cranfills Gap. The gate is usually opened after sunrise, scheduled for an early 6:49. Michael says, from Plano it is a good haul, so he would not make it until about 8:30 at the earliest. The sun will still be low enough to provide for some great shadows. There is a German restaurant a few miles north – on the way home – where we can stop for lunch. http://zurautobahn.com/OurMenu.html
Hope you can make it, we always have a good time. . . and don’t forget to bring a film camera and some film!

THANK YOU
We would like to thank everyone that took the time to see our exhibition “A B&W INTERPRETATION OF NATURE” that ran the month of March at the Goodrich Gallery in Dallas. We had a lot of comments, met many new people and heard a lot of encouraging remarks. The reception was great fun and we appreciate everyone that stopped by.
We would also like to thank the Goodrich Gallery, their committee, and staff for their support and grand hospitality. Everyone was very knowledgeable and helpful and were key to the success of this exhibition.
Again, thanks to everyone for your continued support.

Dallas / Fort Worth LF Gathering, Saturday March 16, 2013
We are heading to the Amon Carter on Saturday morning, March 16. There is a new exhibit, “Big Pictures“, that opened on last week Tuesday and runs through the 3rd week in April. We will meet at the museum at 10AM. Following our visit we’ll head over to Lucille’s for one of their wonderful lunches. I figure about 11:30 at the latest.
And, yes we need to firm up some Spring photography dates. Before we know it, it will be 100+ degrees again.
Please let me know if you can make it to Lucille’s; I will call them Friday morning to reserve a table.
Have a great week y’all
Michael

TALKING ABOUT FILM PHOTOGRAPHY
We would like to thank Larry and the TCC Exposure Club for inviting us to speak to their group last Wednesday. We had an enthusiastic crowd, with plenty of questions and discussion about big cameras and black & white film.

D/FW LF GROUP OUTING TO CEDAR HILL STATE PARK
Finally got in a fall outing, but it didn’t really feel like fall. The day started out nice, but by afternoon the humidity and heat were back. But, we made the best of it. Had a good group to start the day, but by noon Susan and I were the only ones left. We visited the Fall Festival that was going on in the park and stayed for the day. We finally caught up with Michael, who had another photography engagement for the first half of the day, and had a late lunch about 3:00.
The light as the sun rose above the horizon was really nice on the old barns and wood, but it was even better toward sunset. We made several photos, I with my 8×10 and Susan was testing some new 4×10 holders. Got to check out Mike’s Ritter 7×11 camera, a new format for me, and Robert was exercising his, new-to-him, 8×10. We had a lot of the usual photo chat and talk, showed some photos, and I believe everyone had a great day. We didn’t get home till nearly 8:00pm.
It was a fun, but hot day, and might just have a couple of keepers!

GRAPEVINE CAMERA SHOW
We had a fun time today at the Grapevine Camera Show. Actually found several things that we didn’t already have laying around. Funny how many things are FREE. . . especially when related to film and darkroom. A full bottle of selenium toner, and a near full bottle of Photo-Flo, and six rolls of very old 35mm film for David’s darkroom workshop.
You never know what you are going to find. There have been times we have walked out without a thing to carry home, but not today!

OLD TIME CAMERA PHOTO SHOOT
See why these film cameras could help you with your photography skills as well. Metering, composing, keystoning, and hyperfocusing will be discussed and demonstrated. It will be a fun morning!
Come out and see some of the ancestors of your digital camera that still produce magical images. There will be a few of the Large Format cameras – You know the ones with the cape you pull over your head, tripods that could hold a truck, yep those cameras. They will be out and taking photos and explaining how they work for anyone that wants to know.
You will also see some medium format film cameras as well. These cameras still produce 145MB digital scans with more detail than the largest dSLR!
Although the Large Format cameras are a work of art in themselves, the Nash Farm is also a very beautiful farm that’s just great for a day out. Farm buildings, tools, even a small cemetery are all on the grounds of this city park.
When: Saturday, September 22, 2012, 8:30 AM to 11:45 AM
Where: Nash Farm, Grapevine, Texas Google Map
Parking: Park on the side street – Homestead Drive – Stay on the Farm side of the street – DON’T park in front of someone’s home. Please don’t pull into the farm. Take a look at the parking map.
