All,

It's been awhile. Anyone up for an April get together? I'm good every weekend except the weekend of the 17th.

Hi Kent. Sorry coming to this thread late. Getting together in second half of April suits me fine. Can't make it to anything before the 13th.
 
Kent - most weekends work for me.
Jamie - how's the print a week challenge going ; perhaps you could bring some along.
 
Heya Kent,

I could do something next weekend depending on the time. Otherwise I'm all booked up for this month. May is a little more open.

I am free all weekends in April. Can we get together in Berkely/Oakland area? Maybe shoot in area of warehouses/buildings around Berkeley-Oakland border? Or a stro;; up Telegraph? Or??? And speaking of that border, I highly recommend reading Michael Chabon's book "Telegraph Avenue."
 
Looks like we have something to gather and see! Peter Choy and I went by the Leica Store to see whose work is showing, and we discovered what I'd call a 'breakthrough' show put together by Alex Ramos. It's the work of Vladimir, the ever-present Market Street photographer. When I met him, I believe he was homeless; but he's inherited a house, has a darkroom, and has made impressive street photographs from a regular street-person's point of view.

He's the fellow who uses two M2s with all the finish buffed off (the original Kravitz editions), and wears a kind of jeans-coat that he sewed himself, with special pockets for grabbing his cameras quickly. You may have run into him on Market Street? You can google Vladimir photographer SF to learn more about him. RFF had a thread about him a few years ago.

For any and all of you able to make it, huge photo op this Sunday morning at the Fairmont Hotel as the California Mille cars and drivers gather to begin their three-day vintage car road rally. Google "California Mille" for event details.
