+dapettit Posted January 23, 2010 Author Share Posted January 23, 2010 If you would like to bring frag for sale by all means please do. I will have some available as well. The only thing I ask is business be conducted during the first 30 minutes of the meeting and then after the presentation. Thanks, Dave- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+KeeperOfTheZoo Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 Hey Patrick, I though you were swinging through this area last week to get them, I'd called and asked her to hold a couple barrels for you. I swung by just now on our way out of town and the feed store was closed (she closed early on Sat). If you are out here the owner of the store will have them for you, otherwise I can try getting them to you at next mo the meeting. Let me know ahead of time if you've picked them up or not.

+KeeperOfTheZoo Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 Dave, I'm bringing veggies & dip, a couple tubs of maccaroni salad and 3 gallons of Bushs tea. The guys put our canopy away last time we used it and I couldn't find the tie downs so I won't be bringing it. Sorry! I love the idea of a newbie q&a session.

muddybluewater Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 Just wanted to say thank you and it was very nice putting faces to all the names. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAY-ROC Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 Yes thank you for everything. It was a great meeting and I learned alot. I think it would be cool to have a thread started with pics taken at this meeting where we could post some of our pics, since we will only be able to post 1 pic on the contest.

pbnj Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 Now that you're all expert reef photographers, any quick tips for someone with a Canon PowerShot A1000IS who couldn't make the meeting? All I know is no flash and use macro mode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill B Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 Dave and Robin Thank you for hosting what was obviously the best attended meeting yet. You did a great job of putting it on but I also think the attendance was indicative of the increasing effort and success of Andrew, the Mods and 'Staff'. ARC is really turning into a nice little club in addition to a great information center. We appreciate cha' Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Need now to download the pictures I took with my puny Kodak easy share. After your talk, I tried all the various camera setting option modes with your tanks. This includes the video option.

+dapettit Posted January 25, 2010 Author Share Posted January 25, 2010 Now that you're all expert reef photographers, any quick tips for someone with a Canon PowerShot A1000IS who couldn't make the meeting? All I know is no flash and use macro mode. Take lots of pictures after all it's digital. I took 113 pics of my inhabitents last night and end up with only 20 good ones! We hope to have the presentation posted on on-line in the near future. Dave- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
