Yesterday (Saturday, February 27) I attended a meeting that Brian Vance organized for the first of possibly monthly meetings of photographers whose interest and passion is nature photography - birders, wildflower shooters and landscapers, as well as macro and other things nature. There were 8 in attendance. The items of interest are social networking, advanced notifications of events related to optimum nature photography events - bird sightings, wildflower emergences, organized nature events that photographers might find of interest (example: an upcoming orchid exhibition), show and tell or possibly competitions, sharing of information related to captures and techniques.

The next meeting is set for the fourth Saturday in March - March 27, at the Gone Wired Cafe in Lansing, MI. NPN members welcome. Brian, hopefully I haven't stepped on your toes. I figured you hadenought o do to follow up on suggestions from yesterday's get together.
