Late to the thread, in fact, late to reply to any thread. I haven’t posted in a good long time. Anyway, I’m interested in either date. I’ll try to stay more current.

I'll plan on attending, if there is still room.

For those interested in "miniature" formats, I'll bring my single exposure back for the Hasselblad that Jason made me plates for.

Here is what I've captured so far. Looks like a couple slots left.

My apologies for burying this. I can't seem to update the original post. I'll see if Sean can help out on that front.

Slot #23 Feb23 Mar (Backup date)

I love the idea but please let's not promote division. It's Photrio now. Please change the thread title.
I don't like change...I promote this site to people as apug.org (have in the past and still do) and they get here with that address so what's the problem?

Bdial,

I'd be interested in hearing more about this. I have the single exposure back and a lot of plates.
How is that working for you?

Thanks!

I'm embarrassed to say I've only exposed a couple of Jason's plates using it so far, and one of those broke because it wasn't in the holder quite right. But I've been happy with the results nonetheless.

Jason, what we could do (as we have many times in the past) is meet at a breakfast joint first...and then go to your place. Any thoughts?

Great suggestion! I'd highly recommend Parker's Maple Barn (google for directions). They open at 7am on Saturdays, and if you get there before 8am then the wait is non-existent. Actually I'd be all for that. Really photogenic building too.

Can I jump in on 23 feb? I'll bring my 4x5 and a box o'Joe.

DB, c.d.ewen beat you via pm by like an hour to fill the last slot. Would love to invite you, but I promised the boss no more than 8. If it goes well I’ll do this again, don’t worry.

That said, all slots are filled!

Meet at 0700 for breakfast at Parker's Maple Barn.
Arrive at Pictoriographica World Wide corporate galactic headquarters at 0800.
Festivities begin at 0900
See itinerary in post #15

Ok you can come toojnanian.
If you haven't specified already, please let me know what format you plan to shoot. I'll make sure I've coated a couple of plates for you to use.
Bring your camera! I have equipment to spare if you don't have one. Or, you can purchase a box.
Donations accepted but not required.
Focus is on fun!

Cheers,
Jason

I don't shoot dry plate, so I'll just bring one of those newfangled film cameras. I've always been on the cutting edge.
