This is a great idea for cameras with a live view for their on board display. Inexpensive and allows for a bunch of different composition techniques.

Thank G-d, my application to become a contributor to istockphoto.com was accepted. I posted this shot, of someone walking in front of the sun setting over the beach, to celebrate.

Fwd: The Photographer’s Right is a downloadable guide that is loosely based on the Bust Card and the Know Your Rights pamphlet that used to be available on the ACLU website. You may make copies and carry them your wallet, pocket, or camera bag to give you quick access to your rights and obligations concerning confrontations over photography....
I'd be up for setting one up during this time frame if you were up for it. Maybe meet at 6pm one of those nights. Maybe shoot the Mission District?

Monday Nov 17 would work best for me. I've been to SF once in my life and didn't spend anytime there at all outside of working, so I'd look forward to going wherever you recommend. Let me know where to meet and I'll be there.

We photowalk places in and around Aliso Viejo (south Orange County) once a month. Your comments and suggestions for future photowalks are appreciated. Our biggest challenge is that we try to get in and out in just over an hour - the lunch hour. We have done Old Town Irvine, Soka University, Laguna Beach, a shopping center and a business park. We are scrambling for ideas for the next walk - tentatively scheduled for August 7th.

I used to live in Rancho Santa Margarita and went to Laguna Hills High. So I know the area well. Here are some ideas for you: Whiting Ranch Wilderness Park in Foothill Ranch (easy nature hike location), Orange Circle in Santa Ana (nice small town feel and old buildings), Dana point harbor.

Mark, all great locations that I will add to the brainstorming list. But all quite out of reach for a lunch hour photowalk. Ironically, we used to work a stone's throw away from Whiting Ranch, but did not have the group then. We hope to start getting together after hours and on weekends, and these suggestions will come handy then.

Ohh, I didn't catch the lunch hour thing on the first read. Have you tried to photowalk your office space (do you have a warehouse?) Having a group at work for photowalks sounds like a great idea. I will have to check my office to see if there is any interest for something like that.
- Mark Anderson
I think that's a great idea. We did something very close - but only the outside of the building, parking structure, etc. No, no warehouse. There is a data center, but that's high security - you need your retina scanned to get in.
