Grex Photography Item 26: Photo Grexpedition
Entered by mcpoz on Wed Dec 27 02:27:10 UTC 1995:

Anyone interested in a photo Grexpedition?  We could choose a shooting
location and go there and shoot it as a group, helping each other with
composition, etc.  Maybe late March and beyond?  I would have a van capable
of carrying 6 or 7 with gear.  If there is an interest let me know and we will
build a list.  (Also, if you are interested, suggest a shooting location).

27 responses total.

Marc, I know its been a long while since you've posted this item but
I may be itnerested in a shooting trip--I'm going to be in MI in
early June and in early July...


#2 of 27 by mcpoz on Sat May 25 23:08:56 1996:

Let me know when you firm up your plans.  Also, what do you like to shoot?
City stuff?  Barns?  Water?  

Anyone else?

Michigan is beautiful in early summer.  The greens are brilliant and there
are lots of flowers, etc.  If you're anywhere near Ann Arbor there is a lot
of great architectural elements, and the river valley and surrounding lakes
areas have a wealth of natural settings.

I'll most likely [tentatively] will be in AA from Friday evening [this
week] til at least the following Monday [a week later]. Since I've moved
away from MI and still get homesick, I'd love to find something/place[s]
that are more typical Michigan...  Either outdoorsey stuff or landmarks,
whatever.

I have been told that Bay City is an interesting place to shoot, but I have
never been there.  Also there are lots of country settings right around A2
which are sure winners.  I'll look through some maps.

Keep us posted on what you think!


#7 of 27 by mcpoz on Fri May 31 01:28:28 1996:

If I can drag myself out early on Sunday, I plan to shoot a few photos
downtown A^2.  Maybe I'll even get my daugher to try out her new camera with
me.

MArc, did you end up going out and shooting downtown AA with your daughter?
I was hoping to hook up with ya but didn't have reliable access to Grex
at that time...


#9 of 27 by mcpoz on Sat Jun 29 01:14:49 1996:

No, but I did do some scouting and there are some really neat photo
opportunities in the early morning or late evening in downtown Ann ARbor. 
I was thinking of shooting the Greyhound bus depot and the buildings just
south of the old Kline's building (Loving Spoonful and its neighbor). 

I think the beer depot on Packard at night would be good too!


#10 of 27 by denise on Sat Jun 29 13:03:41 1996:

Maybe we can work out an expedition sometime this next week... But.
then, with this being a holiday week, I don't know what other
peoples plans are.


#11 of 27 by mcpoz on Sun Jun 30 12:54:42 1996:

I think my daughter and I will try out her new camera today.  If she gets
excited about it, I will hit her up for a Sunday morning trip to Ann Arbor.
I should know tonight.


#12 of 27 by denise on Mon Jul 1 13:48:35 1996:

Keep us posted, Marc!

I think I'm going to take my new camera down to the park...


#13 of 27 by mcpoz on Tue Jul 2 01:15:33 1996:

We are a "possible" Sunday morning - not at dawn though.


#14 of 27 by denise on Wed Jul 3 13:16:55 1996:

I wouldn't be up at dawn anyway--this is my vacation time!!  :-0


#15 of 27 by baloo23 on Sat Jan 2 11:37:18 1999:

anyone interested in photography in India... the sights and sounds of this
place will blow your mind.


#16 of 27 by mcpoz on Mon Jan 4 01:50:49 1999:

I have a friend who just moved to Madras and has invited me to visit there.
I haven't set up a trip yet, but if I do, I will discuss the photo
opportunities in this item.


#17 of 27 by e4808mc on Sun Jan 10 22:18:00 1999:

Marc, how about re instsituting this come better weather?


#18 of 27 by mcpoz on Fri Jan 15 01:53:33 1999:

Ok, I don't have a van now, but I do have a station wagon with 5 passenger
capability.  Total miles driven is absolutely no problem.  Who wants to go
and where?  (I will be out of town for all of next week, so don't think not
(that should be "no") reply is lack of interest.  I'll be back after January
25th.  I will check in and see what kind of interest we have.  


#19 of 27 by e4808mc on Fri Jan 15 03:22:40 1999:

Err, I meant warmer weather, I guess.


#20 of 27 by gull on Thu Aug 5 19:28:57 1999:

Some of you folks should come up to the Keweenaw in the fall.  Absolutely
beautiful.


#21 of 27 by jshafer on Sat Aug 7 09:00:24 1999:

Assuming it fits in with work & school I'm in...


#22 of 27 by eprom on Thu Dec 11 03:56:24 2003:

any up coming photo expeditions planned?


#23 of 27 by denise on Tue Sep 4 00:40:19 2007:

Anyone in the AA/Ypsi [and southeastern MI, perhaps] interested in doing
any photo  grexpeditions?  I really do want/need to get back out
shooting again.


#24 of 27 by ball on Fri Sep 7 05:55:16 2007:

How about we all take a photograph (wherever we are) at 4pm (local
time) on Sunday, and then compare results?  :-)


#25 of 27 by cmcgee on Fri Sep 7 12:00:42 2007:

I'd love to see us start a Grex site on Flickr that we could all contribute
to.  other and I already use it, as does remmers.


#26 of 27 by ball on Fri Sep 7 14:22:43 2007:

I have a flickr account although my recent efforts aren't worth
uploading, in part because I accidentally loaded up my camera with
stale film.  None of the cans have expiry dates on them, but I /think/
I know which are the least old now.  Perhaps I should just throw them
all away and start from scratch after we move house.


#27 of 27 by denise on Sun Sep 9 15:19:01 2007:

Several years ago, I checked out other people's photos on flikr when
they've posted their  link. But I haven't really done more than that. 
But I think setting up something for grex  users could be cool!

I just need to take the time to learn how to upload photos from my
camera, something I  haven't done yet.  Though I do have lots of images
on my computer that I've gotten from  cd's. Over the last few years of
taking film pictures, I'd have them put the images on a cd  as I've
never been good at doing anything with the negatives.  And my dad has
given me  a cd with LOTS of photos of us growing up along with lots of
OLD ones--of relatives and  such that go back several generations.
