That weekend is Anime North. I was interested in the Wings event, but I can only do it on Sunday.

Looks interesting. I was going to do this last year, but something came up on both days so I didn't make it.

I was thinking about attending, but was thinking more about getting some of my Lindy Hop friends to dress in period clothing for the event. Not sure if I'll get any of them to go though. ;)

It would be a good idea if you were posing with some of the vintage vehicles. Some appropriate music would be nice also.

Count me in for this one. I went to this event last year and had a great time. Of course it is best to go early. The afternoon got a little crowded.

See you there.

Terry.

Newbie Question: How do these events usually pan out? Does the group (or sub-groups) stay together and the more experienced folks provide some direction to the less experienced folks in taking better photos? Or is it a free for all and everyone does whatever they want.

Either way, I fully suspect there is all sorts of assistance available to the newbies but thought I should ask. I am a TPMG Event Virgin and a newbie!

Can someone please elaborate? Thanks!

Yes, no and maybe :)
We usually start off in a group and sometimes break into smaller units. If you want to stay with a certain group let them know so we don't lose you. Also feel free to ask questions if you need help or just want someones opinion.

Thank you, Tim, for that info. This is what I expected. I'm happy to tag along, observe others and ask questions as required. I should be there.

Sorry I won't be joining you. Too much to do for report cards and no crazy swing-dancing friends to join me dressed in vintage clothing. Have a great time though!

This sounds like a lot of fun but I'll be at the clothing show all day with my daughter - she's doing a fashion project for school....

ENJOY!!

Well everyone, it's looking pretty good for tomorrow. Slight chance of sprinkles in the morning then sunny and twenty in the afternoon.
Too bad you can't make it Sue :( If I seen any dancers in vintage costumes I will try and shoot them. Photographically speaking :)
Let's see, old cars and planes and things with gas and oil or fashion show, hmmmmm, hope you are making the right choice Mylissa :)

Looking forward to tomorrow and seeing everyone and some antiques besides me :)

Tim

Sorry about being a no-show. I should have known better than to think I could wake up early on a weekend.

Thanks to all who came out. It was a nice event. Lots of nice old planes and old cars, and the weather was quite nice too. Over cast and not too cool. Nice for shooting.

Tim
