Well, I did it! I've been talking to my husband about the Creative Photography Retreat for months, and he said go for it. This is my reward for turning 60!! I'd love to connect with any other DD girls that may be going as well, so let me know if you are going. Sooo excited!

Creative Photography Retreat is a CK sponsored event. There are two full days of workshops with classes covering natural light, flash, still life,etc. Ali Edwards, Jessica Sprague, Candice Stringham and others will be there. Check it out at www.creativephotographyworkshop.com. Katrina is going to the one being held in San Jose in just a few weeks, I believe.

Gosh, that sounds fascinating! I looked it up online and I am really intrigued! It is just a hop, skip and a jump from me, so maybe I should consider it!

Oh, Deanie, I wish I could go! I'm in Connecticut, so it wouldn't even be far for me, but I just can't justify the cost. I'm sure you'll have a super time!

WTG, Deanie! You are already a terrific photographer so I know you will learn so much from this retreat. I got my first digital camera (point and shoot variety) for my 60th birthday. It came bundled with PSE and that started me down this whole digital scrapping road. I feel like I'm pretty familiar with PSE, but, have not advanced much with my photography in the last 6 years. I admire you for taking a class like this.

Go for it Deanie! Your photos are already fabulous, so I know that you will soak up the classes like a sponge.

Hi Deanie! I've also signed up for CPR Stamford, although I'm a bit nervous about my photography abilities....
Looking forward to it though!
Did you know there is a Yahoo group for CPR Stamford?
http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/stamford_cpr/

Hope to meet you there! (I'm in group A),

Monique
