Chris, thanks for the note. I appreciated your posting about the workshop, though it didn't look like I could make it today in any case. I searched a little for her photography and I felt a kinship with her interest in exploring the details of what we see everyday.

Ms. Hughey, please get well soon!

Please let us know when this is rescheduled. I wanted to go today but couldn't make it, so I guess one person's misfortune is another's fortune. I hope she gets well soon. I was reading in the paper today that when this year's flu shot was formulated, they incorrectly guessed which types would be prevalent, I think the vaccine is polyvalent, so it ended up not being as effective this year as in yesrs past.

Glad there's some interest. I have deleted the original thread.
Will repost all information when program has been resheduled.
Anyone interested in receiving PM notification please PM me.

I haven't been following RFF lately and missed this one. I've been shooting down in JBNWR many times (though not particularly with a RF camera, nor with B&W). There's always something interesting. Maybe I'll try to catch the rescheduled event.
