Shutterbug's club

hile · 05-09-2004, 19:30

I know there have to be more of us than just me who are budding (or experienced) photographers. Who'd be interested in starting a shutterbug club -- a place for questions, answers, equipment reviews, and maybe photo critiques.

Strangely enough, I had to log in again trying to post here. Hm.

Anyway, sure, that would be nice. Does it require 50 signatures? Is there a difference between a club and a forum?

hile · 05-09-2004, 21:23

It probably requires 50, like any of the other rooms,forums/etc (pick a term, any term) in the clubhouse.

Sundog · 05-09-2004, 21:32

I'd be interested. I shoot both modern (digital) and ancient (35mm). I'm always interested in learning more.

judging by the amount of reply vs view in this thread, i'd say most GTers are not camera people.

Clyde in CO · 05-09-2004, 23:52

I am!

Was big into photography in HS, haven't really been into it in the last few years but the itch is building every day.

I consider myself a solid amateur. Never could afford my own darkroom, but when people see my stuff they say "wow, that could be a postcard" I love that~

Could be. Or perhaps not everyone reads Clubhouse Office. Let's wait a couple of days.

Photography used to be my first incarnation, actually (my first college major and first job), but economic realities forced changes later on, and I ended up spending most of my adult productive life in high tech. Still, photography is a great mental escape for me. I substituted digital darkroom for wet darkroom and love it just as much if not more. Ability to catch moments like this one: (shot today during a hike with a 100mm-equivalent lens) puts all the corporate bs and job worries in their proper, insignificant place.

Uh,... that would be me!

Here's my beast.

SanduneCC · 05-10-2004, 23:17

I shoot this beast.

hwyhobo · 05-10-2004, 23:43

Well, it doesn't look like we're going to get 50 votes.

hile · 05-11-2004, 04:50

That's too bad, hwyhobo. Sidearmor said she was on board; there's one more. Eddie, you up for it?

This used to be my first love in pre-Glock days! It sounds like an interesting forum and/or club.

Another club? Ok... I'm in.

Let's post examples, maybe it'll gain some votes. Quick way to get some cool backgrounds...

Sundog · 05-20-2004, 08:33

If you would like to see this forum, please speak up! You don't have to be an expert, you just should enjoy photography. I also see this as a great way for amateurs like me to get tips from you serious hobbyists and professionals.

shrpshtr · 05-20-2004, 08:37
