Photo Walk Description

Be ready for a fun time with the newest “Photoshop Guy.” We will meet at the Henry Plant museum and make a circuit over the river and back taking advantage of the myriad of things to shoot in the area. Sunset for that day will be 7:16 so you will be able to figure out where you want to be for the golden light. Mine will be much better than Scott’s especially since his is full and mine is brand new! :D We will gather for food afterwards at a place I figure out… checking with RC for the best food places since he seems to know all the good spots. Great time to network and have fun and hopefully get some spectacular shots.

Remember to bring your comfy shoes, water to drink and a good tripod if you are going to shoot buildings…hdr…etc. Many of you have probably shot in this area, so come planning to shoot in a new way… if you always shoot telephoto…try wide angle. If you shoot landscapes… perhaps people. If you shoot HDR… maybe try macro. Let this be a time of discovery. If you haven’t shot in this area then you are in for a treat. The campus of the University of Tampa has some great buildings, then there are the two bridges and the waterfront… it is a smorgasbord of visual delight. (Ok, maybe I am trying to sell it too hard there…bottom line it has great stuff to shoot.)

  • Flickr group for this walk is now up!

    I have set up a Flickr group at http://bit.ly/qyuINT for you to go to and add any or all of your photos from the walk. Remember you will only be able to enter one photo from your walk for the contest, but we would love to see what other shots you took, so this is the place to strut your stuff. I am so glad all of you came out for the walk and I hope you enjoyed the weather I was able to arrange for you:D
    Hope to see you guys again in the future!

  • trouble joining walk?

    Hey gang,
    I have had a couple emails about folks having problems joining or long delays in getting confirmation… I am sorry about that… should you have issues please shoot me a message. I think you guys are getting confusing messages, but you are still getting signed up on this side. I have updated the walk meeting point to a specific address for better clarity. I hope that helps.

    Looking forward to the walk….I am a pro and have shot in this area before, but there are always new things to try and I am sure I will learn the secrets of the universe while we walk and shoot….Yours, Willy

    • pete collins says:

      Oh you will learn things you never imagined! Most of which will be rubbish and the rest will be pure frivolousness! :D

  8. pete collins says:

    Ernie and Norma, we are so excited to have you joining us… we will all try to be gentle as we make fun of your spelling throughout the day… other than that, you should have a great time!

  9. Bob Rozanski says:

    This will be mine and my wife’s first Photowalk. The earlier ones always seem to be in conflict with my son’s Bowling Tournaments. So glad we go signed up and looking forward to meeting everyone and learning tons.

  15. Wow – I’ve been trying to leave messages but they won’t post! How about Bamboozle for supper?

  16. Since I’m such a beginner, do I just grab my camera and a lens, or do people bring their bags, tripods, etc? Where exactly are we meeting?

    • Wojtek Golec says:

      Lynne – according info on top of this page,we have meeting point next to Henry Plant Museum or 401 Kennedy Blvd.You can bring whatever equipment You wish.Do not look at others :) .People come with point and shoot cameras or Canon 7D and 3 lenses(like me:).
      See You soon.

  17. Beth McNabb says:

    I’m looking forward to walking with you tomorrow, Pete! I haven’t shot the University of Tampa yet so thanks for picking this spot. I’ve been wanting to check it out!

  18. I signed up as well and only just realized I hadn’t received confirmation. Rather late…sorry.

  19. I had a fabulous time – can’t wait to do it again next year!

    Greetings………….Wojtek

  21. pete collins says:

    Great to have you guys! I posted an update up above about the Flickr group… http://bit.ly/qyuINT,

  22. Wojciech Golec says:

    I just uploaded my picture for contest. Everything is fine,but can I see photos submitted by other Walkers ? :)

  23. Lynne Halleran says:

    I uploaded my photo earlier today but the “View Full Size” option does not work. :-( I’d like to check it before my time is up!

  24. Wojciech Golec says:

    Hello Lynne! I have no problem. What browser do You use ? Don’t You have any program installed ,that prevent to pop up a separate window?

  25. Lynne Halleran says:

    Hi Wojtec! I use IE 8. No pop-up blocker. I still can’t see the whole image. We are abandoned here it seems. No one is reading this page any longer! :-(

  26. pete collins says:

    Sorry Lynne, I did abandon you… my fault. I know that we have been having server issues and that may have caused problems with your upload. I am seeing it fine on this end and you guys will be able to see all the entries soon. I am still trying to talk to the guys about a few people that are having login and uploading issues. Definitely not my area of expertise.
    I will try to post something here as soon as I find out.
    Thank you for your patience.

  27. Wojciech Golec says:

    Congratulations to Joe.Very good picture with contrast between shapes,colors and moods.
    On the right is almost gray,flat, cold area and on the left we see warm,postcard quality, city landscape.This is something like beauty and the beast :)
