I have a buddy that shares my passion so I certainly can see how we can look at something and she see something totally different than I do. And as mentioned earlier I had the very great pleasure of having meet-ups with both Terri and later with Kim which were both totally awesome experiences. I love how one will see something I totally missed and vice-versa. That is the beauty of photography, beauty is in the eyes of the beholder.

Only problem there, we talk too much and giggle and laugh. We have fun and sometimes don't get home with a lot of pictures. I wouldn't trade our closeness for pictures though; we make a lot of memores!!Cathy H.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10779935742253650385noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7068408751309289035.post-76957839603205355262012-06-11T11:18:15.652-07:002012-06-11T11:18:15.652-07:00Kim,

In fact it's usually the other way around - we would all stay in one spot til midnight, if one of us didn't fall asleep! When you are of like minds, you're all in the same boat, and we just spread out, and meet up if one is really concentrating. Or sometimes you're just in a different head - today is for comraderie, tomorrow for technicality.

But I do like to work a scene and always worry that if I go with a group I will either lag them down or not be able to get my best shot if I feel hurried.

Over the past year I've had the chance to go on photo adventures with one or more other photographers and found it so interesting that we could all be looking at the same thing and yet capture it in different ways. It is so rewarding to be able to share your passion with other people who are just as passionate about it as you are. Camp Shutter Sisters last October was my first opportunity to do this and it was life-changing. Then in March I spent the day with Deanna and Barbara Carroll and found it equally inspirational and rewarding. In April, I met up with Stephanie and Leigh in Dallas and again was amazed at how we instantly were in synch with each other and yet captured so many things in our own way. I'm going to Camp Oasis this October and am looking forward to that same comaraderie. There's just nothing like being able to share your passion with others who feel the same way.terriporterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14333055591899961253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7068408751309289035.post-32977386815722708442012-06-11T07:50:36.051-07:002012-06-11T07:50:36.051-07:00First let me say that I love my F-Stop Sisters!

I often shoot with a friend and we find that even when we split up or walk in different directions there is always one shot that we both capture the same way. I encourage all of you to get out there and find a shooting buddy or buddies.Michele.NYChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06767352520298951190noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7068408751309289035.post-7379849216210761452012-06-11T07:47:59.597-07:002012-06-11T07:47:59.597-07:00Do it Dotti!

One of my goals when I retired last December was to start up a local gals photo group since I know about 6 who are also avid photogs. As usual, I've procrastinated.
