Massachusetts Boston Area "Meeting"

[RObert Budding]

Anyone care to hoist a pint at John Harvard's in Harvard Square? And what week nights work best?

Robert

 

[rover]

Oh, I may have to find a reason to drive up to Boston.

 

[Rob Ludd]

Hey, that's a good idea . Thursdays are usually best for me, but I can arrange things around most other nights.

Rob in Brighton

 

[peter_n]

Great! Later in the week would be good for me, Thursday or Friday.

 

[RObert Budding]

Tuesdays or Fridays work best for me - Thursday I have a class at NESOP (New England School of Photography).

[cbass]

Cool. I'd be interested.

Thursdays or Fridays are good. Weekends are even better. I can hop on the MBTA from Bridgewater or drive from Foxboro.

 

[RObert Budding]

Better take the T - we'll be drinking beer!

Robert

 

[peter_n]

Real beer... 😉

Hi,

did not see the thread until now!
Anyday will work!
Thanks for posting Bob!

Ciao

I did the full-time program there a few years ago, and TAed various classes until a couple of terms ago. Are you the Robert who shoots the Contax G?

I'm the Robert with a Contax IIIa, which I will sell soon because I'm now hooked on larger negatives.

I'm taking evening workshop sessions at NESOP and am really enjoying it. Very nice folks and I'm learning a lot!

That's great, I'll look forward to seeing you again.

It sounds like Nick has gotten you into 4x5.

I'm thinking about 4x5. But for now, I'm selling most of my 35mm gear and buying into medium format (Mamiya 645 and a Bronica RF645).

Yes, Nick has been a very bad influence - I keep thinking about the tonality that he gets with 4x5!

Robert

 

[peter_n]

OK I'm going to suggest a date for this. How about Friday October 7th? Does that work for most of you folks?

 

[Rob Ludd]

That's good for me, I'll pencil it in.

(The reason I shoot mechanical cameras is the same as why I use paper and pencil.) 😀

 

[Joerg]

Will not work for me.
Maybe a week later, 14th?

Joerg

 

[peter_n]

The 14th I am scheduled to be out-of-town at present. Maybe we should just propose October 7th and 14th and see which one is preferable for the majority...

 

[cbass]

October 7 = bad for me, I'll be in Death Valley crewing for the FC 508.
October 14 = OK.

Thanks!

 

[RObert Budding]

Oct 14th works well for me.

Robert

I'd love to join you guys. I can make the 14th; I'm unsure about the 7th at this point although I think I can make arrangements. However, if Peter can't make the the 14th & Chris can't make the 7th, maybe we should go back to looking at weekday nights instead of a Friday. How about Thursday, the 13th?
