For everyone in the Portland/Vancouver area, you might be interested in a local group that hosts photoshoots. Meetup.com has an upcoming photoshoot at the Japanese Gardens on March 22. Check it out. This is quite the active group.
Also Pro Photo has a number of workshops/photoshoots for our area. Coming up is the Canon Macro Photography class at the Tulip Festival (April 11th and 12th). I am signed up for the 12th. This is a free class and it fills up really quickly.
Also, check out the Zoo photography classes. I have taken some of these and they are quite well done.
If anyone is attending any of these workshops, please post a note under this journal and we will try to meet up. Four of us went to the Japanese Garden last weekend for a Workshop. The trees are just starting to bloom.

Cool Thank for heads up!
My life is stil up in air. State has certified me for Park Ranger position in Banks OR, Chanpoeg and Sumpter Dredge in eastern Oregon? Still heard nothing final from those u.S. Forest Service recruiter trying to send me to Calif.? It would be wonderful to stay here and take advantage of classes like those you mention. Thank Deri for news!
Deri Dority:
I will keep posting photo shoots in this area as there are a surprising number of them around.
Dave, let me know if you get Champoeg. I live right by there and it is a great place to live and such a beautiful park.

Deri,
Is anything happening in/around Seattle?
CC Arshagra and I are here, and our budding young photographer daughter. (She is one of the photographers of the upcoming Photo Voice Project Exhibit to be traveling around the Olympic Peninsula.)
Let us know please!
Peace,
