Wow, that sounds like an amazing meet! Being a photography nut, I really am thinking of driving all the way out there for this.
 
I'd love to meet Johnny. This sounds like a great idea. Can visitors come or do you have to be a member?
 
So if I brought my canon, would somebody be able to show me how to adjust the white balance so I can take pics under all blue lighting?
 
awesome! I've been wanting to learn this. I can bring my gf's Canon DSLR. However, I am only qualified to use a Sony point and snap.. LOL
 
I have this colony for sale if anyone is interested?
