A good evening indeed. It was our first meeting with this new photography group, but as photography is something I’ve been interesting in, since I was a boy, I thought this would be a great opportunity to meet some like-minded people and swap stories and ideas.
I wasn’t wrong. When we got there, we found about a dozen or so folks there already. The server was very attentive, and took orders for drinks, and then a little later for food.
We’d already eaten dinner at home before we came out, so we just had an appetizer – some stuff grape leaves which were very good, and some unsweetened tea.
Then we started the show and tell, where members bring in about 10-20 photographs on the theme of the month, and Eugene shows them on his projector, so we can all share. There were some good humored moments during that with some laughs and witty remarks – mostly made by the person who’s photographs they were.
Kathy got chatting to Mary, who was also attending her first group meeting. She’s from Moncks Corner, and came with her husband Tom. It turns out she has the same camera model as Kathy – a Canon Powershot A580!
I got talking to Robert, and Eric and a few more of the guys there, and I’m going to explore a web site that runs photographic competitions, and see what I’d be up against.
The meeting closed at around 9.30, by the time, we’d all stood around chatting to each other. I’m looking forward to going to the next one.
