Planning the print swap
Bring a tripod to the print swap and you will make friends before the kettle boils. We stopped chasing perfect frames around the time we started enjoying them. New walkers are welcome at the print swap; bring questions and, if you have it, the old light meter.
Half the fun of shooting is the hour afterwards, when walkers compare what went wrong. Last spring we lost two weekends to weather, so the indoor jobs finally got done.
