    ****Looks like we have some interest, so lets do this. We are going to do this as part of the Wolfman Motorcycle Luggage December Adventure Days.


    When: Saturday Dec 22nd @ noon
    Where: Wolfman Motorcycle Luggage, 1531 Skyway Drive, Unit A, Longmont, CO 80504
    What: Basic Photo Workshop






    Hey Photo Geeks!

    Would anyone be interested a motorcycle photography workshop? I've been offered an open venue to do something like this so I'm trying to gauge interest.

    This first workshop would be free and 60-90 minutes long. Due to the allotted time, we'd keep things mostly basic but allowing enough time to answer more in-depth questions.

    If there is enough interest, more advanced and longer workshops could be scheduled in the future.

    What do you guys think? Anything you'd like to see or learn about photography?

    Would love to! Plz set it for a weekend so that I can attend.

    I'd really like to learn more about action and flash photography. 2nd curtain sync, trailing lights from the riders etc.

    Cripes, I'd just like to get my drool on looking in your toy chest...

    Thanks!

    Give me a day or two and I will post a bit more info on what topics we will cover. Trying to include the basic's but also having enough time to do a Q&A so we can go over more advanced questions that you may have.

    Anything else?

    Cool, we can get into this.




    Probably won't have enough time to dig to deep into this stuff but we can see what we can get to.





    Can't ride dirt bikes in the snow. :D Sorry, this is another good subject we can go over.






    And yes I'll bring a few toys as well...

    I would be interested in this for sure.

    I'm newly back to the front range after 6 yrs in the NC mtns for work. Would like to get to know some local moto types and making photos is also a passion of mine, so this seems like a good place to start.

    Let me know if I need to do anything besides show up.

    Thanks,
    Eric

    I would like to attend if I were in Colorado, but aren't, so I can't.

    If it works out that you can post any video or excerpts from the event, I'd be interested in those.

    Thanks.

    I love this idea, but I'm a bit too far away in Spokane. Why don't you do this at Overland Expo next May? I'll be there!!
