That's great Thanks Cal, I used the 3.5F a few weeks ago and it's so quiet
I can't hear the shutter going off, I'm not sure if it works. Are you guy's
going to have a meet this month or next month? I'm working again and have two Sunday's a month off let me know before hand.

Bob,

Pick either Sunday the 22d or Sunday the 29th. Your choice.

Landrew will chime in. We will be having the Meet-Up at a Beer Garden in Astoria.

Perhaps PM me so I can give you the case and prints I made for you. This would be helpful because I want to bring out the "Monster Workbook" that has about seventy-five 17x22 pages.

If you guy's do the Astoria meet let me know what train to take out there. Hopefully
one of those Sunday's will be good.

Bob,

The idea I'm presenting is for you to pick the Sunday that is convenient for you. Landrew will post the details, but pick a date.

Czech Bohemian Hall and Beer Garden, 29-19 24th Avenue, Astoria, Queens, N.Y.

N train to last stop (Astoria Blvd.).

Walk one block to the intersection of 24th Avenue and 31st Street.

Located between 29st Street-31st Street.

Mentioned as the biggest outdoor Beer Garden in NYC.

I'll be out of town on the 22nd and 29th, so I'll have to skip this one. I do like the Bohemian Beer garden, so we'll have to go back while the weather is still good.

Christian,

Landrew has a cool crew in Astoria.

Also not a bad walk from my East Harlem Apartment via Randel's Island and the Tri-borough.

Chris,

Pick one.

Also I think I will be digitizing 35mm with my SL soon for printing. Something to do that I've been putting off.

Seems like I'll have to make another workbook. It will be interesting to see how my film goes. Don't think I'll be able to print so mucho big, but that is alright.

Cal
 
Hmmm, tough call. Monday morning the 30th I'm heading to a Catskill mountain for 2 weeks so I'll need to do a lot of stuff beforehand...so the 22nd would be the preferred meet-up date for me.
 
Now that I'm working Retail again It's going to be hard to get certain Sunday's
off, the 29th might be good I get two Sunday's a month off so I think the 22nd
won't work. We'll have to see, don't let me hold you guy's up.
 
Hello Everyone ,
Am I correct that the next meetup is the 22nd? at 97th St?
For some reason, I've had a case of photographer's block and stopped shooting entirely for a few months. . But yesterday I dipped a toe back in the pool and went out again and shot a roll with my Nikon F2.
 
That's great to get back in the pool again! I think it's in Queens at a Beer garden
they go to. See what Cal say's when he gets online. I have off this Sunday and
I going I'm think.

Bob,

Perhaps follow me home so I can give you the two prints and the Les Paul case.

"Maggie" has an audition today for a music video for some famous rapper.

Last week looks like she lined up a media agency that does films, TV shows, and publishes books. Now a days it is rare to get an advance for a book deal unless you are a celeb.

Her agent has had two clients who got two book deals with this media agency, and both did well. Some early talk of maybe a follow through TV show kinda like a modern "Murphy Brown."

Today on my way to work I found this 1 inch wide wrist bracelet that is actually a wide black rubberband with the word "MONSTER" imprinted in white letters. On my massive 50 Lux-SL lens I use an old Photoville rubber bracelet to protect the nos of the lens, kinda like a bumper.

Now I have this over-sized bracelet, and since John coined my reputation for "Monsterizing" my cameras I will label my camera as such.

I'll save the Photoville bracelet for the 35 Cron-SL I'll be getting when its finally released.

It seems like Maggie liked when we traveled to Spain together. I might be encouraged to retire early to do all this traveling with her.

Sunday's weather is presently predicted to be 90% chance of rain (today as of this writing is Tuesday 17 July).

So if rainy the Meet-Up will be at the Rochard on 97th and Lex, but if not rainy the the Czech Bohemian Hall-Beer Garden.

Understand that the Astoria location is outside and the only shelter is the umbrellas on the tables.

The last minute confirmation for the location will be on Friday on this thread. Make sure you check the updated post Friday.

Cal
 
Updated forecast is great weather through Saturday, but then a full weak of possible passing thunderstorms starting Sunday.

If the good weather stalls just a bit Sunday might be a bonus clear day like Saturday.
