On my way into town today I spotted a couple of photographers, a man and his granddaughter, standing on the side of the road. We exchanged pleasantries and I pointed out a couple of neat spots to get some landscapes.
It was funny, part of the reason I enjoyed my first camera club, and tookapic, was for this very reason: an opportunity to meet new folks and share in a mutual love for making art.
also: Here is a Hooded Merganser, taken not too far from where the pair of photographers were.
