We had a great meeting this evening. Phillip Jones, from the South Carolina Wildlife magazine gave a phenomenal presentation about his work and career. We thank him for coming over and spending the evening with us. Several firsts this evening. We tried something new with the contests, we scanned all the entries prior to putting them up, which in turn allowed us to share the winners and all entries here on the site. (Photos of the Month / Assignment of the Month). Another first was the dad, Mike, went overboard and brought chicken wings, they were delicious! We had a total of 42 people in attendance.

Don't forget about our Fall Color photoshoot/walkabout on Oct. 18 in the upstate of South Carolina. Phillip Jones shared some insight of where to go and even where we could find some cheap gas, important thing these days.

Talk to you soon. Happy shooting! :)

I just wanted to give everyone a heads up that I just got the final that Phillip Jones from the South Carolina Wildlife magazine will be speaking at our Oct. 9, 2008 meeting. If you have never seen the magazine you don't know what you are missing. I have personally envied their work since I got into photography.

So mark you calendars and make sure to bring a friend because this is going to be a great meeting!

Adding to better serve you! ~ Yesterday we revisited and reactivated our Yahoo group! and would like for you to join us. Why a Yahoo group! now? Well I was looking for ways to reach more of our members. Not everyone is on the forum or has time to check it, so it was suggested long ago that we have a discussion group like this, we already had it in place and decided to revisit it.

Want to join us, then email me at info@sumtershutterbugs.com and I'll get you added right away.

One thing that might help some of you is to change your status to receive a daily digest, so you get all the messages from the day condensed into one email versus getting several emails throughout the day. Just a thought, if you need help or want me to change your setting for you, just let me know.

As always keep all constructive criticism coming my way. Nothing is too small and are always looking for ways to better server YOU our members.

I look forward to your participation in the coming months and years.
