  We will not be alone! I see this as a photo walk opportunity no other walk will have. At 6am Saturday downtown West Palm Beach is hosting a 5k Heart Walk. SO, the usually deserted streets and parking lots, well, won’t be so empty. There is a hugh parking lot at 400 Clematis St. I’d try that first. If that dosen’t work there is one a few blocks south on Evernia Street.

  THis Heart event might avail some great photo opps. I plan on getting there early, not promissing 6, to check it out. Let’s plan on grouping up at the fountain at the east end of Clematis at 8:45. I will be at Starbucks at 8 as earlier mentioned. It’s going to be an adventure. See you Saturday.

• It's almost here!!!

  Please make your way over there and read it. Also, for those unfamiliar with the area, you might want to zoom in on the map at the top of this page and print it out.

  I’m closing in on a meeting place for our gathering after the walk.

  See ya Saturday.

   Hi George,

   I had trouble with the encrypted text and believe I entered the walk twice. I am not sure how to delete the double entry, so please feel free to remove one of the entries I made.

   Thanks,

   Susan

   Herbert, you are on the roster. I’ve never actually registerd for a walk. I’m not sure a confirmation gets sent. Has anyone else received one?

   Would you recommend bringing a tripod or monopod?

     The choice is yours. Some shots can’t be made without one.

    What do you all think about doing a scavenger hunt this time? I can put together a quick list. Should make things a bit more interesting. Let me know.

    Dan, I’d rather leave everyone to their own shooting choices rather than direct them. Reason being, the CONTEST. The rewards are substantial. While I may offer assistance to help you reach YOUR vision, I don’t want to recommend what to shoot.

    ok people, getting close. I’ll be at the Clematis St. Starbucks at 8am, if you are interested. I’ll move to the fountain at 8:45 and remain till 9:15 waiting for any stragglers. I will have a noiceable sign of some sort for you to know who I am.
