If you have any interest in caravanning down to possibly Missouri to catch the Total Solar Eclipse on Monday August 21st – pending clear skies of course – send an email to Amy at [email protected]
Of those who respond, I'll start a group message and we can discuss details 🙂

I saw this article today and tried to find out how to get registered!
Anyone want to go to Mexico and photograph wildlife with National Geographic!
Hosted by the National Geographic photographers Steve Winter, Tim Laman, and Brian Skerry, the three-night photography retreat (starting at $4,158 per person) includes guided excursions to photograph the region’s forests and Mayan ruins as well as daily breakfasts, a lunch, and two dinners. Guests will receive one-on-one instruction from the photographers on composition, lighting, metering, equipment, and more. The program is offered from January 24 to 27, with at least three more sessions planned for 2014.
There's a link to the resort but no information on how to book?

Unofficial LAPC Photoshoot
Where: McGregor, Iowa, area
When: Saturday September 29, 2012
Contact: [email protected]
The idea is to have a fall photo shoot for any LAPC members who are interested. We’re hoping for fall colors, but with the current drought it is not guaranteed that we will get good color.
Anyway, there is no set time, nor will there be an official caravan. It will not be “led” as club member Bob Campagna likes to do with his shoots. It will be self-led. We will go up on our own, or team with friends, based on what is convenient for us and what we hope to capture. I am hoping to capture some sunrise shots, so I will leave around 3-4 am-ish, and I don’t want to put anyone out with my schedule.
Other nearby areas worthy of photo note are Pike’s Peak State Park, Effigy Mounds National Monument, Marquette IA, Prarie du Chien WI, the Mississippi River, and much more. Even if the fall colors do disappoint, there is no lack of good photo opportunities.
If interested, please e-mail your name, e-mail address, and cell phone number to Ken at the above address. I will compile a list of cell phone numbers and distribute them via e-mail prior to the shoot. The cell phone numbers are just for coordinating meeting and eating times, and in case of emergency. If anyone knows any good and reasonably-priced restaurants where we could meet, please include that in your e-mail also.
I will suggest that we meet sometime around mid-day for lunch, and to exchange photo stories. Anyone who is interested should contact Ken at [email protected] and I will keep interested people up to date.

May be a great place to take some great photos of items you don't see very often!
I'm looking for some feedback from the club…
I was talking with an internet friend/aquaintance that is a pro photographer, and was giving him a hassle about when he was going to come to the midwest to give a seminar/presentation now that he is done with his regular scheduled stuff. He responded that he “didn't have plans yet but wanted to get out here sometime… I'm open to suggestions”!
What I'd like to do is see how many people would be interested in getting him to Iowa for a day. I'm going to talk with Bob R. and Bob L. at the meeting this weekend to see what kind of interest there would be for the club and what options we have. Give us some feedback if you make it to the meeting!
Some of you have seen his work and not known it, he is very highly published, maybe you already know who he is and follow his work?
His name is Jon Cornforth.
Below are a couple links if you would like to check out his work, maybe you will be saying “I know that photo!”
I've been following his work for the last 3-4 years… you won't regret taking a little time to look at the links below!

Hello Fellow LAPC Members,
We are planning another holiday photo shoot for next month. I plan to put together a page or two of holiday photos from club members from previous holiday photo shoots for the December newsletter. Please note that these should be from previous club holiday photo shoots only, as I want to highlight the photo shoot aspect itself and encourage others to take part.
Please submit to [email protected] . Please include your name and year/location (if known) in the e-mail. Send separate from contest photos, if you're sending both.
Also…
– …please send as separate attachments. Do not embed in e-mail.
– …send .jpg files, max size 800ppi on the long end (except panoramas, which can be up to 2000ppi on the long end.
– …I strongly recommend that you put an unobtrusive copyright somewhere on the photo, preferably not right in the center, but this is purely your choice.
Please send photos by Monday, November 28, 2011, by 9pm. Any photos received after that time and date may not make it into the newsletter.
Thanks,
Ken Boardrow
Newsletter Editor
