@SF do we have a final itinerary for the trip?

Also being that I am the only one staying at the hotel in the airport, do I need to rent my own car or is the airport not too far out of the way to drop me off?

Final itin as far as what to shoot depends on the weather, as well as our personal preferences. I guess we'll finalize that when we get there.

As far as getting from the hotel to the airport, it's literally a 3-minute walk, you won't even need a car.

Ok. But as far as getting to the hotel on Sunday night, you will be able to drop me off there?

Good point. I would assume it wouldn't be an issue... maybe the others can chime in if they have a better idea.

I imagine it should be fine.

Maybe we could try to end off the night with something near the airport.

Hey! There's something I've been dying to shoot for ages - and it needs an airport at night! Great idea!

I'll post a picture of what I have in mind when I get home later, it's not actually as creepy as it sounds ;)

Still don't know if I'm coming, don't count on it though, I have a couple things i end to sort out ;(.

Also that pick does that take any editing on a computer, or just straight from the cam?

Editing, but very simple.

Home you could make it!

Not too many late flights from CLE.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

  • Location: The value of a forum such as this one is not in that one can post a question and receive an answer, but in that the question has most likely been asked before, and the answer is available to him that will but only use the search function.
  • Programs: 1. Search on google. 2. Search in the right board of DDF with a general word or two. 3. Read the wiki. 4. Read the thread. 5. Ask away.

@SF I've done every notable hike within 50 miles of Cleveland. I've been very busy recently and am debating coming. I will try and put together a list of some places that could be good for photos if I have some free time.

Why do we have to schlep all out there in the snow and cold for a lesson and not just shoot, let's say, NY skyline our the Jersey one

You can bring her along you know. It'll be a cool date :)

Please do. I have a list of ideas, but nothing compares to a local :D

Umm...can I get a photography class from you?
Wow.

Is this comment what started this whole DO? Was just reading SF's TR and now I see where all the pics are from.

I mentioned this place earlier in the thread. There is also some really nice scenic overlooks that were beautiful in the summer, I can only imagine it would be really nice in the winter.
But hey I'm not much of a photographer so this might not be unique enough or suitable
Bridal veil falls might be a good candidate for you guys.

If I go to b and h would they have everything in the store?
I have a Pentax k-50 dslr.
Would there be a place closer to Monsey where I can get the remote trigger, etc...

Don't worry, all the CTEOA (did I get the acronym right) stuff could wait a day :D

That lookout is at the Ledges. It's pretty i the summer, but quite boring in winter :(.

Bridal Veil falls seems to be difficult to get to in winter, but Blue Hen falls seems similar but more accessible.
