Photo Walk Description

This is the weekend of the annual sidewalk chalk art in Grants Pass. We will meet at the parking lot and then walk to H Street to take advantage of this venue. From there we travel up 6th St to Taprock Resturant next to Evergreen Bank at 6th and M St. There we will meet at 11:00 am to share our experiences and chat with the members of the group. There will be a map of photo highlights for each walker along the route including Riverside Park and the area around Taprock on the river.

October is a transition month when it comes to weather. We could have rain or sun. Please be prepared.

  • Last Minute Update

    Looks like the weather may cooperate better than expected. The forecast for tomorrow says partly sunny with a high of 72. However, it would be wise to bring a zip lock bag to protect your camera in case it does rain. It will be very cool overnight so dressing in layers is a good idea.

    I am very much looking forward to meet you all and enjoy a great day together. Remember this is open to beginners, hobbyist, and pros. If you are too late to sign up for the international competition, you can still attend the walk and are still eligible for the prizes from Photo Den.

    I want to encourage everyone who is registered to submit their best photo to the international contest so they can have a chance at winning Scott Kelby’s newest book, Light It. Shoot It. Retouch It., a full Adobe CS5 Suite, Epson R3000 printer, Nik Software Suite, OnOne Software Suite, Westcott Lighting Kit, B&H Gift Card, iPad (32GB), NAPP Membership, Kelby Training Subscription, Full Library of Kelby Books, and Photoshop World Ticket!

  • There is a chance of showers in the weather forecast for Sunday. We will be walking rain or shine! Hope you will join us even if the weather is not cooperative.

  • Good News

    We have just heard that Photo Den will be offering a $25 gift certificate along with an enlarged print of the winning photo from the Grants Pass photowalk that will hang in their business when decided. Second place will receive a photo package of their 2nd place finish image.

    Thanks to Tanya Felsheim for obtaining this for us.

  • Meeting Location

    Just to be perfectly clear, we are meeting in the parking lot on 6th St between J and K. Somehow some believe it to be on the corner of H St. We will meet and then walk to H Street where the sidewalk art is.

    I am looking forward to seeing you all on Sunday, October 2.

    Cheers!
    Marcia
