Silver Conference March 30 to Apr 1, 2007

[Robert Hall]

While I am sitting here in China waiting for the sun to come up, I was thinking about the Silver Conference and realized, "Hey! It's coming up!". I have recieved a tentative schedule here for the conference. Time is getting short for registration and I wanted to post something here for people to see what is happening. (I am not associated with the conference, I just think it is very well done from last year and really something we all should support)


I went last year and really enjoyed myself. I met many of the best in the business there and would recommend this to all.

HAH! Sorry Bob, I already learned about the competition and plan to enter. So the gauntlet has been thrown down! Sir, I accept the challenge, and may the best eye win!

And if a draw should occur, I propose that satisfaction be gained using 8x10s in Dodge City. The choice of film is yours.
